Wick Candle

How do you keep the wick in a candle from getting flooded over with wax?

It seems whenever I burn a glass encased candle, it floods over with wax and I have to keep pouring it out.

Chances are, the wick has been cut too short. If a wick becomes too short to light, carve away enough wax around the wick(s) in order to re-light the wick(s).
You may get a fairly large flame at first, but as the melt pool expands, the level of the melt pool will rise, creating a smaller flame. When you have
achieved a full melt pool, you can extinguish the flame(s), let the wax cool, then trim again if necessary.
