TIPS FOR BEGINNERS: I find pouring boiling water in the candle jar works better to remove old wax; the wax floats to the top leaving the candle wicks and glue at the bottom. It also reduces the amount of burnt wick that gets poured into the new candle AND gets all the wax without leaving any extra in the jar. The only problem is it takes more time since you have to wait for the wax to dry and remelt it, but this really is my favourite method if you're trying to keep the wax clean. I don't know about the people in this video, but in the case of the stovetop method and doing a bunch of candles in one go is glass breaking. This happens when the candle is too cold for the hot water. To avoid this I've had to either add ice cubes to the hot water or dump it out and pour fresh cold water into the pot. This I find ends up using more/or just as much water as the method of pouring boiling water in the jar. It also depends on how much wax is in the jar your melting, I only melt wax on stovetop if I have a lot of wax to melt (ex. when I'm remelting my wax to put in a new candle). Another tip is to pour the wax in layers to avoid the curving effect that happens when it drys, like letting it dry before you pour your final layer. With clear jars, you may see lines, but it is worth it for a more professional looking candle. Pouring in layers also helps with keeping the wick in place! The wick will curve when it gets hot, so keeping it straight will be the most challenging part, but if you let it dry enough in between layers, it will stay in place. This one doesn't really matter as much as the others, but you can get ropes of wick string and reuse the metal pieces (trust me you'll need the metal part) from your previous candles for a cheaper alternative. To save yourself some time, it's better to get the kind that is already coated in beeswax, but you can also get the uncoated wicks and coat it in candle wax yourself. The problem with uncoated wicks is you might have more trouble poking it in the metal piece (I suggest toothpicks) and you'll probably also burn your fingers if you're not careful. I hope this was helpful to someone! :)

[@justjewelz74]

Hi :) As a candle maker, this is a great video. I find you will always have a small amount of wax at the bottom of candle jars. Just be careful not to reuse any wax that has any debris or soot residue in the wax, because that is not good to reuse. I was very happy to see you didn't add additional fragrance. Wax can only hold so much fragrance oil, and it then can become dangerous to add more fragrance. I'm sure you did some research to find out what wick size to use in the jars.There is a product we candle makers use called a stickum, which is used to secure the wicks in place at the base of the candle jar so it doesn't move around when pouring in the wax. Othewise, rather than using the wax as a candle, you can reuse as a melt. But this was a great video .. well done :D

[@DaBayleef]

I saw another video like this where she poured the hot water inside the jar! The wax melted and floated to the top, then when it hardened she was able to pop it out. It definitely takes a lot more time because you have to wait for the wax to solidify but it could be a nice alternative for those who might be nervous about this method!

[@colbysanchez5175]

That's the method that I used to do, and you're right, it takes so long!!

Plus with this method you wouldn’t worry about cracking the jars. I can’t tell you how many I cracked while removing them from the stovetop, using the method shown.

[@NikkiWiley]

Put the jar in the fridge to cool off faster 🤷🏽‍♀️ after it is cooled from the boiling point of course

[@alexn.2148]

Thanks for the instructions. We’ve just melted 5 leftover candles in a shallow pot on medium heat. But instead of using your method to hold the wicks we took one bigger plastic lid ( from sour cream plastic container) , made a bigger hole in the middle ( for pouring the wax) and on the edges of that hole we made 3 slits with a knife to hold the wicks . Put that on top of the glass candle jar and poured the wax through the hole . Worked great !

[@TheodoreBakes]

Love this idea!

[@constanceczerwinski696]

I think this is a better and easier way for sure. No more waisted candle wax and now you can create a design that you love even more than the ones you purchased!! Thank you so much for putting this tip out here because I've got many great scents and many colors that I can get creative with! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Your tip is greatly appreciated!!!!

[@rebeccab1527]

You can drastically speed up the process by sitting a whole bunch of jars on a cookie sheet and popping them into the oven on lowish heat (doesn't take much heat to do it) until they all melt. That way you don't have to melt each seperatelly and one at a time.

[@vminhope3040]

My oven is only used for storage of pans. Nobody has ever used it. 😂 I wish we could store that elsewhere. I might do this one day.

[@thechickincharge1073]

If you let each layer cool and dry slightly you get a layered candle that changes scent better.

[@MissaPality]

I have a bath and body candle obsession. It is my one guilty pleasure so I will typically buy 10 or so each month. Multiply that times 3 years and I have an entire section in my basement of spent candles. At least 500 or so of these candles with the remaining wax left. I have been telling myself I will eventually get around to doing something with them. Lo and behold I stumble upon this video. Starting the process tomorrow, but it my multiplication is correct, I should be able to make about 30 candles with this method. That is a pretty good haul. Thank you for this. I am excited to see how great it turns out and how my house smells while doing it.

[@charitygoldart]

10 a month is insane.

[@shannonwolff2599]

I also safe left over wax from container and taper or pillar candles. I also buy old, used and ugly candles (usually in grab bags) from my local charity shops. It's a triple win, you are reusing the wax, recycling the jars, getting your supplies at a low cost (great for those of us on a budget like myself) and supports a local charity at the same time so GREAT!!! I also bought most of my supplies such as jars, a couple of old pots to melt wax etc at the charity shops as well. I have bought all of my supplies such as tongs, metal spoon, and even things I could use as a candle mold just by looking around at various thrift and dollar stores!!

[@14annette87]

I tried this but let the wax dry before adding a diffrent scent. It took waaaaay longer but I love how each scent burns individually and when thay scent is done it goes to the next!!

If you freeze the the candle jar, you can take a butter knife and split the frozen wax down the middle and it pops right out of the glass. Then you can melt all the ones you want together at one time. I hope this helps in your process.

You should glue them down with a glue that can take high heat. Otherwise the candle will be a fire hazard.

[@rlolo777]

But then once your candle gets down to the bottom and the wax is all melted, your wick falls in and you can only use it then for tea lights. You should reuse the wick holders.

[@KZ-dp7rb]

never made a candle in my life and I assumed that was the way to go without much thought lol 😂 crazy that anyone would go through so much trouble trying different ways. The wicks are pretty stiff sometimes. I suppose you might need help keeping the wick up if it isn’t very stiff or if you are serious about getting the wick perfectly upright and straight

[@kimhernandez5695]

Just saying... The time it would take to wax a wick the bottom, enough for it to be thick enough to not remelt when adding additional hot wax.... Seems a bit extra. Same with using glue. Why add more steps and supplies if you don't have to.

I used to do the hot water method and it takes so long. In old KZbin tutorials, I saw hot water being poured directly into the jars to make the wax float to the top. It works, but you have to wait hours and pour water several times to get all the wax. I honestly didn't know that I could put the jars directly onto simmering water. Thanks so much for this! :)

[@endorawood9177]

Just put near empty candle into freezer. Wait a bit. Tap it upside down on safe surface, as soon as removed from cold. Wax frees itself. If stubbon, can split wax gently with a sharp object. Nothing is mentioned here about filtering burned debris from old candles. I'd pour over cheesecloth section. Also just layer a scent, allow to harden, then add a complementary scent. Better than mixing. Always try to use a metal pitcher to pour melted wax. Pouring from old to new jar is too dangerous. So saith the old Burn Nurse. Good video with great ideas. Thanks!

This is not a bad criticism, I just have a safer way of dealing with the old wax, I have issues with my hands so couldn't use your technique. It takes a lot longer doing it my way...... 1. Pan of simmering water. 2. Hot water in a kettle. 3. Put the old jar in the water as you have done. 4. Poor the hot water into the jar just below the rim level. 5. Turn turn the heat off and leave it to go cold. 6. In a sink break the wax that has now floated and aet at the surface of the water. 7. Make sure all the old wax is dry, I leave it overnight. 8. Then melt it all as per your way. I actually use a milk pan on the hob at it's lowest setting. The wax will melt at around 60c. I only do it this way because I have poor hands, getting old sucks lol. Edit: I did love watching your video so thank you.

There is a much easier and safer way to remove that wax. When candle burns out, cover it with some water and put it in freezer. Take out when frozen, let it sit out for water to melt a bit then use a regular knife to go around the outside of wax and I will chip out in chunks easily. Save those chunks to be melted using the double boiler technique to make a new candle.

[@marigeobrien]

Good tips. I especially like the idea of creating a wick holder using skewers. I've melted the end of candles to clean out the jars before. Then I usually use the jar for something else. Like, the little ($1) candles are great if you want to gift home-made jams, jellies or butters (like cinnamon butter or apple butter.) The jars also useful for organizing little odds and ends. Larger jars are also good for gifting home-made candies, provided they're individually wrapped (work.) Now I'm trying to make candles. I did try to make a candle earlier this year but it didn't come out very well. Mostly, I used a plain string for my wick so it didn't burn properly. It went well otherwise. What I did was use a clear jar and layer the various colors (giving each layer time to set) so it created a nice array of color. This time I've just made my own wicks (which isn't hard; there's a video that shows how to do it) and I've been using white, scentless pillar candles with the idea of melting down the remainder and adding color using food dye and/or crayons, plus adding scents using either bought scents or scents I make myself. My friends all love coffee so I've collected a few of those coffee bags (Dunkin' Donuts is my favorite) and I'm going to try making candles using those bags, plus adding some coffee grounds to the melted candles. I'll let you know how it goes. But I may also try using base ingredients like cinnamon or mint-- I wonder if extracts would work..? I'll let you know. ;) BTW, when I melt candles, I usually use a frying pan because you don't need the pan to be too tall-- and they usually have a wide enough base to accommodate more than one jar. And, since the candles I'm using don't come in a jar I'm using cans that would normally go into recycling. That way I don't have to worry about cleaning out the left over wax. That's one job I hate.

[@stephedgar-shiers406]

You've definitely inspired me to save the old wax.

Master Tip - if your pans etc get waxy - heat water in them and add an oil (i.e. olive oil) which will blend with the wax residue and make it easier to wash off with dish soap.

Thank you for sharing this. This worked pretty well. We were a little clumsy with our first candle, but following your process and steps definitely helped!

You can also melt a wider candle, and put it into a narrower jar to get more of that particular scent
