My obsession with candles runs very deep. Not just candles, but small accents that can accompany the candle and change the look and feel, adding in another layer. I receive so many questions in regards to candles, my glass hurricanes and the little dishes you often see underneath a candle scattered throughout my apartment. You can find a lot of these on my Candle Shop page, but I wanted to breakdown a few of my favorite styles. I use everything from saucers to coasters under my candles and will often use the glass hurricanes as a vase – multi functional!

How do you clean out the old wax? I have candles that no longer burn but I’d love to keep the glass they came in. I’ve tried freezing them and digging them out but nothing’s worked. Thanks!
Hi Emily!
It really depends on how much of the candle is left how it burned (i.e. if there is a lot of wax build up on the sides) I try to leave a little bit at the end and then cut around it with a sharp knife to pop out the remaining amount. I then soak it in hot soapy water to get any excess wax off. Hope this helps!
