It is the weirdest thing. This post and the “Test” post are not showing up and I cannot get here from the Rocks in My Dryer website, but somehow people are able to see it to comment. What is going on?? Whatever the case, I have saved all posts to my computer before more fall off! If someone would be so kind as to tell me how you got here, I’d appreciate it. I cannot even see this post from my dashboard.
Do you have glass votive candle holders that would look nice if only you could clean off all that old wax? For the harder to reach areas or for larger chunks of wax that are either stuck to the bottom or won’t fit through the opening, I have found that placing the holder into a pan of hot water - without getting the inside wet - on the stove with the burner on med. helps loosen the wax enough to remove it. Wipe the remaining wax off with a dish cloth that is hot and soapy.
Caution: You don’t want the water to boil, and you don’t want all of the wax to melt, you simply want the hardened wax to come loose and, if it’s an issue, you want larger chunks to fit through the opening of the holder. Hot melted wax clings to fingers! Be very careful! PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
I wish I had taken pictures of how disgusting my candle holders looked before I cleaned them. All this time I thought they were frosted glass!
