Many candle lovers prefer buying glass jar soy candles. That's because they come in attractive glass jars of different sizes and shapes and they are quite affordable too, just like the Karma Senses glass jar soy candles.
We mentioned it on our previous post about soy candles that
soy waxes are a lot more softer compared to other types of wax. They burn cleaner too and they have low
melting point. It is because of these
characteristics that they are placed inside a container. I personally don't mind really because these
containers are very pretty, especially when they have wooden or lsilver lids,
and once the wax is consumed you can use the jars for something else. It's exciting. Just a little precaution though. Never burn your glass candles all the way
down or you risk breaking the glass. If
there is only half an inch of wax remaining on the glass jar, extinguish the
flame right away. Remove the wax and
reuse the candle glass jar.

How to reuse your used candle glass jar?
Removing the wax from the glass jar candle is quite
simple. Once the jar has cooled down,
put it inside the freezer for an hour or two.
Low temperature causes the wax to shrink and it will be easier for you
to remove it. I used a dull knife in
removing the rest of the wax. Peel off
the label and then clean the container.
Do you know that vinegar and baby oil can help remove the wax? Soaking the container with a vinegar solution
also helps remove the fragrance. Once
it's clean, you can use it for several things and I've listed a few nifty ideas
that you can use it for.

What to do with you clean & empty candle glass jar?
●
Candle Refill.
If you've got several candle jars, you can find a soy candle
refill. It can be a lot cheaper than
buying a new one.
●
Candle holder. Use the bigger soy candle jars as a
container for your tea-light candles. To
make it more beautiful, you can fill the container halfway with sand or pebbles
or even marbles and then place your tea-light candles on top.
●
Vases. If you've
got one of those huge glass jars, you can clean them and use them as vases and
display them as a centerpiece.
●
Treat Jars. Use
the jars as container for treats like colourful candies and lollipops. Or you can use one of those little ones, fill
them up with jelly beans, put a ribbon on top and you can give that as a gift
to brighten up someone's day. As an
alternative to those candy treats, you can also put mini biscuits. I'd love to get me one of those.
●
Bathroom/Accessories Storage. These adorable jars can make great containers
for your cotton balls and q-tips. You
can also use them as containers for your colourful hair clips.
After reading this post, those glass jar soy candles will
probably never look like just candles.
I’m sure you’ll envision them as one of those cool items that you can
have in your homes.
