So I have decided I wasn't thinking this thing through when I decided to do 30 Days of DIY. I'm literally flying by the seat of my pants right now on what DIYs I'm going to do.
I have to say that I'm pretty proud of this one! Tommy's dad just finished this candle today and I was all over it! I mainly wanted the jar but there was so much wax left that I decided to check Pinterest for a way to make wax melts. Keep reading of you want to see how I did this!
What you need:
✔️A Pot
✔️Old Candle
✔️Some Type of Mold (I used solo cups)
First, fill the cup about a quarter of the way with water. Then place the candle jar in the water and turn the burner on. This is also a really great way to remove the label!
Wait for the candle wax to start melting. Remove the wick before it melts too much (I waited too long and couldn't find mine).
Once the wax has fully melted, carefully pick the jar up using oven mitts and pour the wax into your molds.
Now just let them cool! I waited a few minutes and put mine in the fridge to speed up the process.
Once the wax is fully cooled, remove it from your mold. I had to cut my cups because it would not come out no matter what I tried, and I was scared to break it.
Now put it in a jar and you're done!!
These would make an awesome gift for anyone who loves wax burners! I put mine back in the candle jar but will probably find something else to put them in because I want to use the jar for something else.
Let me know what you think!
