In today's blog post, I'm going to show you step by step on how to re-use candle containers by cleaning out the wax for extra, but cute storage!
Step one
First of all, take your finished candle and pour some hot, boiled water into the container. Then wait for about 5-10 minutes for the wax to melt and detach from the container.
Step Two
After, you can see that the wax is softened by the greasy texture floating on the surface. This is then the right time for you to scoop out the wax with a spoon.
Step Three
After the wax is scooped out, there will be some excess wax left in the container. As a result, fill the container with more boiled water and leave it for about 2-3 minutes.
Step Four
There still will be a bit grease or wax stuck on the container after you poured the water out, so rinse the container with water and start to scrub the excess off with a scrubber and soap, as it works the best. Sponge can be an alternative too.
Step Five
To be able to get the tag off the container, rinse it with hot water and it should be easily peeled off.
Step Six
Next, wash the container with a sponge and soap to make sure the container is sparkling clean.
Step Seven
Finally, just dry the container off with a towel.
There you go,you now have a crystal clean container!
