How to make jar candles

Ooooh I am SOOO excited about today’s guest post by Not for the Faint Crafted! It is fun. It is quirky. It is clever. It is recycled. AND it makes a fantastic gift idea too!! So what is not to love.. right? Learn how to make jar candles from recycled jars and mason jars today! Not for the Faint Crafted, used Marmite Jars (most definitely love and not hate..) and Nutella Jars… but just think.. you can use any old jar or mason jar to make these candles. So if the person you are gifting these Homemade Candles to has a “favourite” something.. use that jar.

I love that these candles also have scents to make them extra special. As you will see Vasuhi uses “new wax” to make these. However, I have upcycled old christmas candles in the past and have a post on how to make a wick. So you can literally recycle the WHOLE of this DIY. This post also shows you how to dye your wax using old crayons!
