If you are someone like me that has a deep affinity for candles in your home, then you also probably have an abundance of candle vessels that don’t have a purpose, yet you feel guilty just throwing them out - don't!
Below is a list of all the creative ways you can find use of a candle vessel after it has done its job of making your home or office smell amazing. But before you begin storing household items, follow our easy instructions on how to revive your vessel back to life.
*To clean your vessel - pour hot water and allow leftover wax and oil to separate from glass. This will float to the top, simply remove, and toss in garbage. Clean the inside of the empty vessel with alcohol and it's as good as new.
