PANDA Botanicals' candle containers, with their elegant design and durable quality, are far too precious to end up in the bin once the candle has burnt out. So, we've curated a list of creative ideas for you to repurpose these jars and tins. But first, let’s walk through the simple process of cleaning out the leftover wax.
How to Remove Leftover Wax from Your Candle Container
Our wax blend isn't as hard as some companies that use paraffin or bees wax meaning cleaning your jar out is easy! Just follow these steps:
1. Using a butter knife or spoon, carefully remove as much wax as possible from your container
2. Boil the kettle and pour the hot water into your candle.
3. The wax will melt and rise to the top. Let your candle cool and the wax re-harden on the surface. Then simply remove!
4.Remember to remove the metal wick holder at the bottom of the container, and clean the container thoroughly with warm, soapy water to ensure all wax residue is gone.
