DIY: Upcycling a Candle Jar
Hey guys!
Recently I burned through a favorite candle I purchased from Hobby Lobby. I felt like it would have been wasteful to throw away the glass jar so I decided to up-cycle it and use it for something else. This post will show you how I did that :)
First, boil water, enough to fill the candle jar close to the top. |
Now, grab your candle. I LOVED the smell of this candle! |
This is what you should have once the wax is removed. |
If you have trouble with removing the outside label, set it into a pot full of warm water and fill the jar full of water to weigh it down into the pot. |
Next, take a green scrubber and and soap and completely clean the jar. |
You should be left with something like this. |
You can use your candle jar however you wish depending on the size. I chose to use mine to hold bobby pins, hair clips, and hair ties. |
Wondering what to do with the excess candle wax?... |
Cut it into pieces and use it in a wax warmer! :) |
What things have you up-cycled?
