How can I reuse the candle jars?
Upcycling for high-quality scented candles
Is your high-quality scented candle in a glass jar burned out? Too good for the recycling bin! Since Best Bougie uses exclusive materials, our jars are far too valuable to throw away. With a little creativity, you can give them a second life as stylish home accessories.
Step 1: Clean the glass properly. Before upcycling begins, any wax residue must be removed. Since our long-lasting scented candles are made from high-quality waxes, residue is usually easy to remove.
- Freezer method: Place the glass in the freezer for a few hours. The wax will contract and can then be carefully pried out with a knife.
- Hot water method: Carefully pour hot (not boiling!) water into the glass. The remaining wax will melt, rise to the top, and can be removed as a disc after cooling.
Step 2: Creative upcycling ideas The simple elegance of our high-quality scented candles in glass fits into any room:
- For the desk: Use the glasses as elegant holders for pens or brushes.
- In the bathroom: Perfect for storing cotton swabs, makeup pads or hair ties.
- Green oasis: Small succulents or cuttings look particularly good in the cleaned glasses.
- In the kitchen: Use them as stylish storage jars for spices or as tealight holders for new, strong scented candles .
Sustainability at Best Bougie: We believe that luxury and environmental awareness go hand in hand. By reusing our glasses, you support our journey towards greater sustainability and keep a piece of Best Bougie design permanently in your home.
