What are those sticks called that you can light candles with?

I'm scared that I'll burn myself with the lighter when flaming the candle so I want to get the stick that you can light first to light the candle.

    I like to use extra long matches, I can’t remember what those sticks are called either. Are you thinking of like the really long wax ones? Or am I thinking of something completely different lol
    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    I've never owned one of those, they look very useful. What do you do when they run out?

    You mean this right?


    Ive had this for ages. Got it from poundland. Very useful for candles
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    @Eleanor
    I'm learning things today, I think I've been living under a rock

    @Dandelion
    I genuinely thought that people would buy them for decorative purposes and not for light candles
