I've been a busy worker bee, doing lots of DIY lately and I thought I'd share my most recent project; recycling candles. We all have candles with burnt out wicks but plenty of leftover wax. Fear not my friend, you can still use that wax! There are a few ways to do this, but I have my preferred method after many fails. I wouldn't call this a beginner project, but it isn't impossible either, you just have to pay attention (and not much is more boring than watching water boil, but seriously pay attention!) or you will end up with a huge mess on your hands...and all over your kitchen and floor.
I love this one because you get a nice layered candle that will go through all of your favorite scents! It's also such an easy way to avoid throwing out lots of awesome and easily re-usable material, saving you tons of money!
I highly encourage you to read the entire tutorial before attempting this one as I've laid out a lot of options and a lot of scenarios that I've encountered through trial and error.
Tutorial after the break!
