How to Get Hardened Wax Out of Your Candle Holders

You could chip away at it, groan in frustration and figure it will just have to do… OR you could :
- Put your oven on warm (or it’s lowest setting)
- line a 9×9 or 9×13 baking dish with heavy duty aluminum foil - or 2 layers of regular foil
- put your candle holders in the pan face down
- leave it in the oven till all the wax melts off into the pan
- pull each one out and rinse it in hot water to get the melted wax off (before it hardens again!)
- let the melted wax in the pan cool and harden and then pull all the foil out and trash it, melt it into candles or whatever

some really great ideas! With my glass candle holders the votive kind I place in the microwave for a 5 - 10 seconds.
