    The tarts fragrance last for 8-10 hours each. When it's time to change pop burner in freezer, take out after 30mins and wax will pop out in one go. No scraping or cleaning. X

    I put a whole tart in a silicone cup cake case (the ones house to bake cakes in) that way when I get bored of the fragrance I can take it out whole and put in a ziplock bag until next time!
    No scraping or putting the burner in the freezer.
    There is an excellent video on you tube about this

    Second (or third?) the freezer thing... I do it with candle jars too - then I pop out any wax remnants and you can often use them in the oilburners too :) waste not want not after all... :) (sneaking off to look at the 50% off yankee candles sale... you naughty lot leading me astray!)

    I also do the freezer thing. We have two tart burners and several jar candles plus I've just been given a few more for Xmas. :D
