ABSTRACT:
The candlewick-fixing device replaces the need for two tools with separate functions by combining both tools at opposite ends of one adjoining handle. On one end, an O-shaped candlewick hook allows one to straighten and reposition the candlewick without having to extinguish the flame. On the other end, a bell-shaped snuffer extinguishes the flame when one places the snuffer over the flame. The bell-shaped snuffer is attached to the long handle by a hinge that allows it to be rotated horizontally. The device includes a plate to rest the bell-shaped snuffer on when not in use.
