Can I reuse the container after I have finished burning the candle?

Candle Burning Tip

Certainly.  If you have wax left in the container, you can remove the wax by scooping it out with a knife.  Be careful.  You can use the leftover wax in a tart melter.  One of the many advantages of Soy Candle Wax is that it is water soluble. Soak the container in warm soapy water and wash as you would any other glass. The wick is attached to the bottom of the glass with an adhesive that is easily removed with a pair of pliers or tweezers.  Our Tureen jars make perfect storage containers for many different items and you will be helping the environment by recycling the jars instead of adding them to a landfill.
