Recycling Candles

Reuse Candle Cups*

One of the best ways to clean your leftover wax is to pour boiling hot water into the cup.

Leave it overnight. The wax will harden and float on the water surface the next morning.

Use any utensil to remove the floated wax and pour away the water.

Remove the wick and clean the cup with hot soapy water.

Now you have yourself a brand new coffee/tea cup to add to your kitchen collections.

*Same method applies to candle tins.

Reuse Leftover Wax

Pat dry leftover wax that was removed from the cup/tin.

Place broken pieces of scented wax inside a pouch to bring life and fragrance to stale areas of the home, such as inside drawers or wardrobes.

A wax pouch is an eco-friendly alternative to disposable car air fresheners, too.
