Caution: Hot Surface

Recycling several old candles into a new candle.

I usually pop the smaller clumps of wax into the new candles but this looks like a better idea! Can you use any kind of string as a wick?

What a good idea!

@laetitiapetrussa I just used whatever string I had around the house, and tied a little washer to the end to weight it down to the bottom of the jar. I dipped the string in the melted wax before I poured the candle.

What a fabulous idea - I must try that!
