Tip: if you dont have a wax heater, you can also use a knife to break the rest of the leftover wax out from the cups then heat them in the microwave and pour into the new one! Super easy to do and dont forget to save the glasses!
Instead of rinsing out your jar, an easier way, pop it in the freezer for 10 minutes or so, woo hoo, wax comes right off easily. Sometimes even better, it will pop out too even if you have a lot. So much easier than washing the wax out with soap water in a sink. No mess using freezer method ! Guaranteed. Let me know if you like this suggestion after doing this method. A lady who use to make candles for me told me this. It’s a MIRACLE.
Instead of holding the long wick until the melted wax rehardens, wrap the top of the wick (the extra part above the rim of the jar) around a pencil. Put the wick in the bottom of the candle and rest the pencil with the extra wick wrapped around it across the top of the jar. Then begin pouring wax. The wick will be set in the wax and the resting pencil with the extra wick wound around it will stay in place while you pour the rest of the different waxes into the new jar.
Or just poke a hole through a piece of foil (about the size of the wick) put wick through the hole then place wick in the jar filled with wax as you did then cover the rim of the jar with the foil...wick will stand with the support of the foil. When it hardens pull foil up and continue adding wax👍
To keep wax in place all you needed to do is dip the base in the melted wax and hold it down at the base of the new Jar, it will only take less than a minute to stick.
Wow I just happened to come across this and I am so upset my expensive scented candle literally burned half way and then stopped lol glad I can salvage the rest of the wax with these awesome tips! Thanks for a great video 😊
First things first: the wick is not in the middle and second: this candle will make a ring (tunnel burn) because you left the wick too long. The ideal length is 10 mm; that the wax melts evenly over the entire surface, that the wick does not take the shape of a mushroom when burning and does not smoke. Melting the wax: boil water in a large pot, place several glasses inside and the wax will melt and the label will come off. To keep the wick in the middle, use popsicle sticks, a comb, skewers...
IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BUY A WAX WARMER: Boil some water (I use an electric kettle) and pour it directly over the wax. Wax floats. Once it has fully dissolved off the bottom and floated to the top, stick the whole jar in the fridge to solidify it. It will turn into a wax puck on top of the water. You can empty multiple used candles at a time with this method. You just need at least one other container to put the wax puck in for remelting in the microwave if you want to still do the layer method.
Thank you for this easy step video I was so disappointed when the bath and body works candles don’t burn all the way for the bottoms so I was just throwing them out … and that’s expensive because your not getting the full use out of them thank you so much I’m excited to do this!!!
to hold the wick in the empty glass jar, just dip bottom of the wick holder (the metal part) to the liquid wax and put it in the center of your jar and hold it down. you don't need any kind of glue. it will hold.
oh my god ! Thank you so much! I have been throwing out my candles and wondering how how to get out the old wax for years! Thank you so much for this 😊. Where did you buy the warmer and how much was it ?
I do the same thing with my wax. Add it to another old jar. Smells good to mix them too. And i save the jars to make jewel jars with bling wrap around them.
You can always run tape across the top of the candle opening to hold the wick up so you don't have 2 stand there and hold it. Or maybe even use a little bit of tacky wax on the bottom of the wick to make it stick 2 the bottom of the jar.
I use small piece of wood with hole in middle to hold whick in place as wax dries. I know its an old vid but I said why not as I passed by. tyvm for video. Was helpful. Enjoy
I always have leftover wax on my candles cause I simply didn’t know what to do with it. Thanks for this tip! I’ll try it next time with my new candles!
If you take your WIC and wrap it around a pencil put in the middle of the glass just across the top it'll suspend it you don't have to hold it and you can continue pouring on either side of the pencil that is suspending the wick anymore melted wax to form a candle cheers from Canada
Another advice if you got hair bands or rubber bands take two horizontally each side of the wix, and then take another side on the vertically each side of the wix to keep wax from wangling around. Next take the wax and pour little bit enough to cover the wix to keep it in place but you’ll still need to hold it down till first small amount base pour hardens. But I never thought about hot gluing the thing down.
That's a good idea to use the electric candle warming for melting down the old wax..especially for people who have kids that like to help, so much safer for kids than melting wax in a pot on the stove.
So you don't have to wait as long in the first layer put it in a bowl of ice and water it shouldn't take long doing it that way. Thanks for the idea on what to do with the extra was that you love the smell is but doubt want to throw it away. Got my idea helps you on your next one your do.
Why not break up the wax while it's hard, toss it all into a clean candle container, then heat the wax to get a nice smooth layer. This wouldn't work for layered candles, but for small single scent candles it would
You could use a metal washer to hold the wick (make your own by soaking string in melted wax) and 4 chopsticks to hold the wick in place whilst the wax sets 😉
For holding the wick, Go to your local grocery store (if they sell sushi) or go order some Chinese food from your local place and pick up some extra chopsticks. separate the chopsticks and use one to put across the top of your candle jar. Put your wick into the jar and just wrap the top of the wick around the chopstick. You could also use a bread bag tie to fasten the wick to the chopstick, if you didn't want to wrap the wick. A comb is a nice idea as long as you don't mind getting wax all over the comb. I find a chopstick is sturdy enough to hold the wick, while being small enough to not block the mouth of the jars.
Thanks. With Pier 1 (my favorite candle jam) goin' outta business, I wanted a way to keep the scents around. This'll work great, especially since all of the scents that I like compliment one another - woods, spices, musks, etc.
Tip for holding the wick down is use some type of drying clips that you would use to air dry your clothes. Not sure what they are called lol but you can find them pretty much anywhere including dollar stores or wvwn walmart .
Hi, what is the name of your wax warmer, and how long does it normally take to melt the wax? I've read that putting the jars in the freezer allows the wax to be removed, but you still have to melt it.. but I mistakenly bought a (Brrnoo / Haowecib) Coffee Mug Warmer because I liked the glass plate and auto shut-off. Unfortunately, it uses a 20W "PTC" heater that limits it to a constant 55C. For a small jar with just a little wax takes well over an hour... and most my used jars have the wax stuck on the sides, so I imagine it will take hours. Any thoughts on anything that might be quicker? For example, the Bfull Wax Warmer looks good, but I assume you'd have to use it as a hot water bath.. might as well use the stove. Perhaps a reflow hot plate? Hot-Air gun (858D)? Or one of those yogurt makers that have a temperature control (Tibek/Aicok/Suteck)?
YOU DONT NEED TO HOLD THE WICK WHEN FILLING THE JAR WITH MELTED HOT WAX--THATS THE REASON THEY SELL LONG WICKS IN THE PACKAGE THAT ARE LONG ENOUGH TO LET GO & REST ON THE TOP OF THE RIM WHICH CAN BE CUT AFTER FILLING JAR TO THE TOP WITH MELTED WAX .
That’s a great idea yes there is several ways to hold up a wick while drying , ( if you guys don’t have a comb I have long hair and I need those thick brushes I don’t own a single comb. ) Use a hanger which we all have , don’t take it off the rack just place a chair 🪑 underneath it with your candle 🕯 on the chair and dangle any string from the hanger down while using any clip for hair or chip clip and it will hold your wick in place! This is great idea 💡 for candle reuse great job!
Chopsticks tied at both ends with rubber bands will help you keep the wick up. Also if you don't reuse the jar for candles there are so many other uses around your house, I'm sure you could think of something!
REUSE, REDUCE, RECYCLE! - REUSE STUFF WHENEVER & WHEREVER POSSIBLE, REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF GARBAGE TO THROW AWAY, & RECYCLE ANYTHING & EVERYTHING THAT CAN BE.
Awesome video! Now I know what to do with all my left over candles, how long does it take for the wax to cool down and get hard before you pour the next melted wax??
I have a question, can I put the candle in the freezer to make it dry faster? Or is that not a good idea? Or is there anyway to make them dry faster? Loved the video, and I'm going to recycle a whole bag of leftover wax to make new candles that I'll give to people on christmas. I prefer to give self-made gifts anyway. I've never recycled candles before but I'm really looking forward to.
yeh a comb or apair of open scissors or a cardboard square with a hole in it.... plenty of ways to hold the one wick... several holes in the cardboard for multiple wicks. Good Luck!
How longe does it take for wax to harden/dry? I want to take old white candles and melt the wax add color/essential oil and pour it into layers into a mold to make a candle like this or make gradient candles
Lighting such a long wick made me cringe. You should ALWAYS trim to a 1/4 inch or little less. It keeps the wick from mushroom topping and also keeps soot levels low.
Tiffany Martin I’m sure it does since I sometimes just do one of my bath and body works candles with one wick since it’s so strong and it will make my room smell just as good as using 3 at a time
If you’ve bought a wax warmer, wouldn’t it be simpler just to use that until the wax is gone? I mean rather than mixing scents and going through all of the trouble of buying wicks and everything..
@@drpepper4465 The only problem with using the double boiler method is that when you put a container of any type in water it bobs around so you're going to have it moving around and then you have the added problem if taking it out of the water without spilling thr wax since you won't be able to use an oven mitt. Then you'll need to pour it into the jar pretty quickly and the glass is gonna be super hot, too hot to touch where as using a candle burner doesn't have any of these issues. A candle burner is like $10 tops.
Or you could tie your wick around a pencil or nail, etc. (depending on jar size) and let that sit across the rim of the jar so you don't have to hold the wick while the wax freezes. And then cut the wick accordingly. Oh, of course someone beat me to it.
Hi! We dun have Walmart in Singapore so I was wondering if I could use a cup warmer? Do they work the same way? Or do candle warmers go up to a certain temperature?
I’ve honestly never tried that before but I’ve heard of people doing it that way so I’m sure it’s possible! If it’s a glass candle jar I think you can honestly just put it in the oven on a low setting for a few minutes and that should do the trick
be careful putting warm wax down your sinks plughole, it can easily block it and your plumber will lol in your face when he unblocks the sink and a waft of bonnie scented candles comes up from the "blocked" sink. Didn't happen like that to me at all.
You could also try placing a pencil or pen across the top of your mold or container pick for the new candle and giving the wick a twist around the pen to stay om place and dry.
Place a comb across the top and put the wick between the teeth to hold in place.
this is the best idea in case the candle wick starts sinking down.
Dena Stacy 💜Smart Idea
Perfect idea 👍
Yeah. That was painful to watch.
awesome idea ) much better than tying it on pencils or notching Popsicle sticks haha
I've been throwing out my candles for years omg... this needs to be in trending on RUclips!
Haha girl same lol then I was like wait no I need my moneys worth lol
Same!!! I didn't know wicks were sold separately. Love this! Thanks:)
Tip: if you dont have a wax heater, you can also use a knife to break the rest of the leftover wax out from the cups then heat them in the microwave and pour into the new one! Super easy to do and dont forget to save the glasses!
KTdesign where did you get your wax heater?
I was thinking this
Put your leftover candle in the freezer first. The wax will shrink a little and get really hard. This makes it easier to break out with a knife.
Thanks for this!

Going to try
THE GLASS JAR WILL CRACK IF YOU PUT IT IN THE FREEZER.
It won't crack, its not left in there that long. Works wonderfully
I've done this method with the 3 wick candles n single ones for about 2 hours n it pops out..
Put a little melted wax to hold the wick! It sets quickly & holds it in place :) while you pour the rest ...
Instead of holding the long wick until the melted wax rehardens, wrap the top of the wick (the extra part above the rim of the jar) around a pencil.

good idea ! will definitely try it !!! thanks love:)
No problem. I loved your video, just couldn't imagine how frustrating it was to have to hold the wick. You have the patience of a saint!
Or just use a clothes pin and rest it in the rim of the candle...
Or just poke a hole through a piece of foil (about the size of the wick) put wick through the hole then place wick in the jar filled with wax as you did then cover the rim of the jar with the foil...wick will stand with the support of the foil. When it hardens pull foil up and continue adding wax👍
So Many creative people and ideas in the comment I love it
I like how you were to the point and simply explained. Thanks! I need this.
I never thought of a candle warmer. That's much easier to do than double-boiling! And I always see candle warmers at the thrift store.
To keep wax in place all you needed to do is dip the base in the melted wax and hold it down at the base of the new Jar, it will only take less than a minute to stick.
I have a bunch of leftover candles that I love! I didn't want to throw them away, I'm glad I didn't! Thanks girl! 👍👏💜💜👋
I like to put the wick between two skewers and I tape them together. Thanks for the vid!!🌸
I like to put the wick in my dinner

It's so good...
oh my god ! Thank you so much! I have been throwing out my candles and wondering how how to get out the old wax for years! Thank you so much for this 😊. Where did you buy the warmer and how much was it ?
Walmart ! I believe it was like $5 ? There’s a link for it in the description box ❤️❤️

Can you tell me if your nails are natural ? Or do u have acrylic ? Gel ? I love the way they look super natural
hey love ! they are acrylic its just a super light pink polish its a essie polish in the color "sugar daddy"
With Love Marium love the nails, too ❤
yeh a comb or apair of open scissors or a cardboard square with a hole in it.... plenty of ways to hold the one wick... several holes in the cardboard for multiple wicks. Good Luck!
you can use two pencils rubberbanded together with the wick put between them to hold it in place!!
Finally looked up how to do this lol thanks
How longe does it take for wax to harden/dry? I want to take old white candles and melt the wax add color/essential oil and pour it into layers into a mold to make a candle like this or make gradient candles
As that wick looks off centre won't it burn more the one side and leave a wall of wax on the other causing tunnels..smoke etc..? Like the candle tho
Can I just use my stove to melt the wax instead of buying that thing?
Bryan Jimenez, yes you can but do it in a double boiler or just use a small pot with water, then place the glass jar into the water.
Loreena Ducharme thanks so much!!
Add boiling hot water. Wax floats to the top
Lighting such a long wick made me cringe. You should ALWAYS trim to a 1/4 inch or little less. It keeps the wick from mushroom topping and also keeps soot levels low.
Use chop sticks across the top of the wide mouth jar to stabilize the wicks, then you can do more than one!
Thanks!! Will be doing this soon.
I love the mainstays candles! 😍🕯
Same !!! Omg they’re the best and so cheap !!!
Your candles are really beautiful!
Wath brand are they?
Mainstays.
They look like the ones I get a Walmart which is "Better Home and Gardens" they're $5
Love this idea!! I’m definitely going to try this..
Use scissors lay sideways, open scissors lay new wicks against sissors. Less hassle. Nice vid. Thanks
Did it burn even with just one wick?
Tiffany Martin I’m sure it does since I sometimes just do one of my bath and body works candles with one wick since it’s so strong and it will make my room smell just as good as using 3 at a time
Where can a get good quality wicks?
Nice idea. Can you share the link for the wax warmer?
You can use one pair of chopsticks or maybe two pens to hold the wick, so it won't crook.
I'm italian, but i love the mainstays candles!
It's easier to remove the wick and metal post before you melt the candle; that way you can reuse the wick.
@Just Dimples - What do you mean by re-use the wick? How is that possible?
I just did this TODAY! Should have used super glue haha, that's alright cause I'm learning! Thank you for this video!
If you’ve bought a wax warmer, wouldn’t it be simpler just to use that until the wax is gone? I mean rather than mixing scents and going through all of the trouble of buying wicks and everything..
Where did you get that warmer? Or what it is called?
You can probably melt the candles in bain marie, no? Like, just put the glass container with the wax inside a pot with hot water.
Oh tats awesome, they look better than when u bought them
can i use something else instead of the wax warmer? xoxo
Ummm honestly not sure ? lol I’ve only done it with a wax warmer but maybe the oven ?

What can I use instead of a candle heater?
Hi! We dun have Walmart in Singapore so I was wondering if I could use a cup warmer? Do they work the same way? Or do candle warmers go up to a certain temperature?
They are the same thing. She called it a candle warmer. It's a cup warmer.
Frankenstein candle awesome
Hey for the wick you could try 2 sticks to hold it
A few ppl said the same thing lol I’m definitely gonna try it next time ! Thanks love :)
Can you do this with a mug warmer?
Do you always do it that way
I LOVE IT!!
Great video, very helpful
great idea. i will create my own too and make a video to show my version. thank you for sharing!
Yayy please do ! I’ll have to check it out !
Still watching
This my fav vid! Thanks!!❤️
It would have been great to put a link up for the warmer but thanks for this idea
La-Kisha Nance-Houston you can put the jars right into a crock pot low water where it doesn’t run over or just put in microwave. I do the crockpot. 💖✨
I dont have a wax warmer but my candle jar is massive so could I just put it in a pot thats only halfway filled with hot water on the stove ?
I’ve honestly never tried that before but I’ve heard of people doing it that way so I’m sure it’s possible! If it’s a glass candle jar I think you can honestly just put it in the oven on a low setting for a few minutes and that should do the trick
Hey guys at Michaels now So I don't have to buy a wax adhesive??
be careful putting warm wax down your sinks plughole, it can easily block it and your plumber will lol in your face when he unblocks the sink and a waft of bonnie scented candles comes up from the "blocked" sink. Didn't happen like that to me at all.
This was An awesome video!
Tnx much big helped 😃😃😃😃
Instead of holding your wick wrap the end around a pencil and set it on top and it will hold it perfect every time😉
@Kelli Stoneking - Do you have to tape the wick to hold it to the pencil? How does it stay wrapped? A wick is not a wire so how do you wrap it?
You could also try placing a pencil or pen across the top of your mold or container pick for the new candle and giving the wick a twist around the pen to stay om place and dry.
thanks girl! :)
