While it may be disheartening to acknowledge that your beloved candle has finally burned so completely that it cannot be relit, there is always a bright side: these simple crafts allow you to utilize every last bit of the colorful or scented wax.
You may melt the leftover wax from a taper, pillar, or jarred candle and utilize it in a number of ways, such as adding it to a candle warmer or creating lovely flower wax sachets that make kind gifts or useful fire starters.
How to Melt Candle Wax Safely
Wax leftover in jars or candle holders, as well as the bottoms of too-small candles, can be melted and reused.
Apply the Double Boil Technique
The melting points of several types of wax range from 100 to 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Melt a spent candle’s too-small-to-light remnants by placing it in a small skillet over a large pan of simmering water. After the wax has melted, use tongs to remove and discard any old wicks before pouring the molten wax into a jar for the crafts listed below.
Candle Wax Removal From a Jar
Reusing wax from a jarred candle can be done in the same way, but only after the wax has been taken out of the jar.
