Saw it, Pinned it, Did it!

Candle jars!!

Step 1: Once you've burned the candle completely, it'll have a little bit of wax left at the bottom. Put the jar in your freezer, leave it for at least an hour or even over night.



Step 2: The cold temperature will cause the wax to shrink and loosen from the sides of the jar. Using a knife carefully poke the wax to break it apart some may even come out whole.




Step 3: Peel off the label. If there is a label on the bottom of the jar, peel that off as well. They should come off very easily.


Step 4: Clean the remaining wax and glue out of the jar using a paper towel with a small amount of vinegar or olive oil on it. Rinse out with soapy water and dry with a paper towel.


Step 5: Now you have a cute jar to store jewelry, cotton rounds or anything else you want. Enjoy!
