    I’ve been using my leftover candle wax, after the wick is done, from all my B&BW candles in those silicone molds for years! Makes a great little xmas gift or stocking stuffer (birthday etc) I’ve also used the wax in smaller tea lights with new wicks 😊

    I just watched your last video where you explained where you have been!! Your baby is grown, she’s not home everyday and good for you to take the time to do that!! Not everyone realizes you only get one shot at your kids growing up and you do your best every time you can💞 you have many fans and for me I’m so happy for you, I was worried it was something bad💞welcome back to your fan family😂

    As a candle maker just a friendly tip the bigger the candle maybe add two wicks for an even burn ❤❤❤

  • Hi Megan, I am happy to see you on a video making candles with cookie cutters. I was watching a video of Shannon the other night and I cannot believe it but her handle just escaped me. I just finished working 3 12 hour days in a row at my job and I am having a senior moment. Anyway she was remaking candles using the pillar candles from the Dollar Tree pouring them into different containers and all of a sudden I had an idea! 🥰 I thought to myself I wonder if I were to make cookie cutter Christmas trees and red cardinals using cookie cutters for candles if it would work but,I was unsure of how to do the wicks. OMGOSH this idea of mine was just two days ago and here you are! I am in a 3 day craft sale in November and I am selling jewerly, my fabric creations but I have wanted one more idea and I thought of mini candles from cookie cutters in nice clear bags. My sister makes holiday soaps and I think if she and I paired up and I made candles would be cool. Her Christmas tree soaps are awesome and you should see her soap ghosts. I live in a very tiny (stepping stone/giant shadow box) 610 SQ FT flat (hope to buy a small house next summer) so I do not have lots of room to store things. My linen closet top half is linens and towels and bottom half craft supplies. I made myself shelves out of clear Dollar Tree cubes that were being sold at the Princeton University student store and with wire ties I made nice shelves for between the pedestal sink and the thrown. But, I mentioned storage ordeal because, I wonder if there are ideas to reuse the glass containers for that the candles come in. Or I guess just put them in the recycling container. I LOVE your JOY candle. My Mom's favorite word was JOY. For her it stood for Jesus Others Yourself. My Mom was my best friend I ever had. She passed away from Pancreatic cancer the day before her birthday in 2021. She was full of life, never had headaches, never a cold or a flu and walked a mile every other day. Her Dr said she was an anomaly for Pancreatic cancer. We lived together and we had the best life together. She would be reading on the back porch and I would be out there with my glue gun going working on crafts. She had always wanted a nautical porch but she was on a budget and didn't know where to began to create it. When she wasn't home I made nautical pillows on my sewing machine. Had a beachy rug from Wayfair delivered to my job, I had beachy candles from Dollar Tree, I added many cool other things I made. One Saturday while she napped in the house I created a beautiful beachy porch with her shells from Sanibel Island and all I bought or created and I put on a fresh pot of coffee at 3 pm to have on the porch and read. While in the kitchen she could smell the coffee all the way into her bedroom. She came out and said how great it smelled. The day was getting cooler with rain coming I said let's have coffee on the porch. It was a very hot day and she said sounds good. I couldn't wait for her to go out. I set up a little tray with our cups sugar and cream. She went out first thank God I wasn't carrying the tray yet with hot coffee she screamed with excitement BECKY DID YOU DO THIS! She was so very excited. While I was writing to you, I just had another idea for candles with cookie cutters. I wonder if they exist I have never seen any. Star fish, sea horse, fish shaped cookie cutters would be awesome as candles. I have made candles out of the northern clam shells from the Jersey shore and the deep konchels from Sanibel. Seeing this video of your's today Sunday, Oct 21 has my wheels going. I haven't been to a Dollar Tree since early spring. Having to move out of my Mom's house and back to renting I have been on a tight budget so I am shopping my stash all the time. Tomorrow on my lunch hour from work I will run to the Dollar Tree. Not even there 2 years. It's brand new and huge it use to be a Rite Aid and it's free standing so you can imagine it's size. Sorry for the novel. Thank you for these wonderful ideas. Love, Rebekah in VA

    I love these ideas. One note, if you're burning the candles in metal all the way down, make sure to put them on a plate or something heat proof. A friend scorched their table with a candle in a tin when it got too hot.

    Thanks for keeping the container candle wax in a container. Freestanding candle wax is very different. Great style.
