Now we have all bought that amazing smelling, luxurious candle in a pretty jar. But isnt it a shame to throw away that jar or candle holder just because that wax is seemingly impossible to remove? Well not anymore ladies and gents! This little tip changed my life! We go through a LOT of candles in my house and I hate throwing things away that could be reused!
Its so simple!
Boil a fair amount of water in a pot or kettle.
pour into the glass jar or candle holder.
now just wait! the wax will start to look like a little lava lamp, slowly making its way to the top. leave it untouched for a few hours. By the time you check on it all the wax should have made its way to the surface and will be floating atop the water! just pull it out and throw it away! VOILA! clean glass! I always give the glass a quick wash with soap and water to clean off any residue, and then youre all done!
