Leftover candle wax can be reused in many ways instead of throwing it away. Here are some ideas to reuse candle wax:

1. Make a Tealight: You can use the leftover wax to make a small DIY tealight. All you need is some leftover wax, an empty tealight cup, and a small tealight wick. The cups and wicks are very inexpensive and can be purchased from your local craft store or online.

2. Homemade Wax Melts: Wax melts are scented pieces of wax that can be melted in a candle warmer or tart warmer to release fragrance. You can make wax melts from the leftover wax of your favorite candle to make the smell last even longer.

3. Fragrance Pouches: You can make fragrance pouches by melting the leftover wax and pouring it over dried flowers, herbs, or potpourri. Once the wax has hardened, you can place the pouches in drawers or closets to keep them smelling fresh.

4. Seal a Letter: You can use leftover wax to seal envelopes for a personal touch. Melt the wax and pour it onto the envelope, then press a seal into the wax while its still warm.

5. Wax Fire Starters: You can use leftover wax to make fire starters by melting the wax and pouring it over a bundle of dryer lint or shredded paper. Once the wax has hardened, you can use the fire starters to start a fire in your fireplace or campfire.

6. Make a New Candle: If you have enough leftover wax, you can use it to make a new candle. Melt the wax and pour it into a new container with a new wick.

7. Lubricate a Sticky Drawer: Rub leftover wax on the wood where the drawer slides to make it move more easily.

8. Infuse Your Home with Fragrance: Put leftover wax in a heavy glass jar and place it on a radiator. When the wax melts, it will release a lovely aroma in the room.

9. Easy Skating: Melt down leftover wax into muffin tins, so skateboarders can wax up curbs before skating on them.

Before reusing the leftover wax, its important to remove any debris or wick remnants. You can do this by freezing the candle jar, boiling it, or washing it with hot soapy water.
