    How to give a second life to your candles?

    At each period of the year, the candles make us capsize. Beyond their captivating smell, they can accessorize a room, they are more and more design. But once the candle is consumed, it would be a shame to throw away its beautiful container. Here are our tips and ideas to give them a second life.

    First of all, it is necessary to clean your jar. For this, you can melt the remaining wax in a bain-marie. Attention ! Do not melt it in the microwave, the wicks have metal bases, it could cause sparks!

    For an impeccable result, you can clean your jar by hand or in the dishwasher depending on its material. You can also remove labels with hot water, olive oil or acetone.

    Your candle is now ready to be recycled!

    The basic pencil holder

    Simple and practical, the recycled pencil holder from an old candle jar will add an aesthetic touch to your office. We make it possible for you with Dyptique brand candle jars. Their simple and clean design will be perfect.

    An elegant jewelry box

    Inspired by the famous Fabergé eggs, Ladenac's egg candles are already real jewels in themselves. Elegant and sophisticated, it is obvious that they are made to become a superb jewelry box.

    A vase for your bouquets of flowers

    To make a vase, your candle jar will need to be large enough. We are thinking directly of the Baobab brand candles, in particular the MAX 24 size candles. These candles will have the perfect size to accommodate your prettiest bouquets of fresh or dried flowers.

    A pot or flowerpot for your plants

    Perfect for those with a green thumb. Grow a succulent or a small cactus in your pot to add a touch of nature to your interior. Here, we recommend that you use a jar from the Côté Bougie Marrakech brand.

    Useful and practical containers

    Fornasetti and Trudon candles can be transformed into containers for the bathroom or kitchen. For example, you can store your cotton balls, cotton swabs, rubber bands or make-up, but also your seeds, spices and other loose foodstuffs.

    Be careful, it is necessary to wash your pot well and deodorize it with white vinegar before using it for cooking.

    Find all these candles in the Segraeti Monte-Carlo boutique and here.
