Everyday Life

This is is a tip that you may already have figured out but I find it extremely useful and thus will share.

I learned it from Martha. As in Stewart. {I say that as if she was just over here the other afternoon showing me how to prevent candle wax from sticking to my glass. Ha!}

I have found that if I put a few drops of water into the glass container (any size) before inserting a candle, when the candle runs its course, it is sooooo much easier to get out. In fact, usually, the used candle just pops right out and your glass is ready for a new one!

I held this up so you could see the water in the bottom of the glass votive. Now, when it's sitting upright, you do not notice the water. And it's not a lot of water...just enough to barely cover the bottom. Prevents the wax from sticking.

Try it!
