Wanted: advice on candle making?

Candle Making Wax

I have some left over wax from some Chinese candles purchased at Walmart. I purchased some wicks online thinking I could melt the wax and make a new candle with the leftover wax. However the resulting candle flame would be very weak. I assume either this would be a problem with the wicks used or the use of left over wax. Are there different kinds of wicks? Different kind of wax? Any constructive recommendations?

    Yes, there are many sizes and shapes of wick, all relevant to the size of candle.
    Google candle making, lots of sites and places to buy wax and wick.
