Ceramic candlestick
You also need to make sure that your container is not porous (capable of absorbing liquids). Ceramics are great for candle containers, but they need to be properly treated so that they are no longer porous. For porous, unglazed materials such as ceramic cups, control the length of the wick; if the wick is too long and your flame grows to the edge of the container, you may get a bigger flame than expected.
A metal candlestick
It should also be obvious when choosing a candle container that it does not leak. But some canisters have seams on the sides or bottom that cause them to leak. So check your metal before use and maybe even fill it with water to check for leaks before pouring hot wax into it!
So here are three questions to ask yourself when deciding whether your container can be made into a safe candle:
1) Will it break?
2) Will it catch fire?
3) Will it leak?
Any container can be an unsafe container if left unattended! Just because you followed all the rules when picking a container, don't ignore it believing it's 100% safe. Each candle still needs to burn on a heat-resistant surface, and away from curtains, plants, or anything flammable!
