Our tips for maintaining glass tealight holders

Removing Wax from Candles

Freezer Method :

    • Place the tea light holder in the freezer for several hours.
    • The wax will shrink and can be easily removed with a knife or plastic spoon to avoid scratching the glass.
      Hot Water Method :
      • Fill the tealight holder with hot (not boiling) water and let the wax melt and float to the surface. Once cooled, remove the pieces of solidified wax.
      Using a Hair Dryer :
      • Gently heat the wax with a hair dryer until it becomes soft, then wipe it off with a soft cloth.

      Regular Maintenance

      Cleaning:
      • Clean your tealight holders regularly with warm water and mild soap. Avoid abrasive products that could scratch the glass.
          Avoid Wax Build-Up :
          • To prevent stubborn wax deposits, do not completely fill the tealight holder and clean it as soon as the candle is finished.
          Storage :
          • Store tealight holders out of direct sunlight to prevent yellowing or discoloration of the glass.
          Salt, sand and small pebbles
          • Place small pebbles, sand or other means to prevent wax from dripping to the bottom.
