Any ideas what l can do with half finished scented glass candle holders?

lt seems such a waste to dump them when there is candle wax still there not to mention the glass containers themselves..... Such a waste...

    You could use hot water to pry out what is left and then use the glass holders for tea lights?

    I hate it when you end up with a load left in the candle holders. I always dig out whats left, melt it gently in my 'candle saucepan', then pour it back into the candle holder with a cut down household candle in the middle.

    You have to keep an eye on it whilst it sets though as sometimes the candle goes a bit wonky.
