Hi again. My Mum, being the insane horder that she is :rolleyes2, opened a cupboard door today to reveal a bag of old candlewax and countless glass jars and containers with bits of old wax still in the bottom!!! When I laughed and her and asked her 'Mum, WHY??' she looked sheepish and said she was intending to melt them down and make new candles, but still doesn't know how to make a candle!! Well....I laughed until tears streamed down my face, but I guess you had to be there Anyways, what i would like to know is CAN these be melted down and reused? Parts of the wax are pretty yuk and blackened with bits of matches stuck in them LOL, but is there a way of melting it down and cleaning it up? Getting the debris out of the melted wax? Then I can make her some new candles so she can start collecting wax again Thanks for your help, if you can help?? Anjie,x.
