How to remove wax from candle glass ready for candle refills

Step 1

As soon as your candle wax has melted down, prepare to get ‘refill ready’ with our quick-and-easy glass cleaning tips:

Firstly, make sure any leftover wax is completely cool and solid, then place the candle glass in the freezer for approximately one hour or until the residual wax becomes brittle. Next, using your fingers, push down firmly on one side of the residual wax pool to release the wick and wax in one piece before discarding. Never pour liquid wax down the drain.

Step 2

Clean the glass using warm, soapy water and a soft cloth, while avoiding any harsh or abrasive cleaning products as these can damage or scratch the internal decoration. For the same reason, it is important cutlery or sharp utensils are not used to remove the wick or wax.

Step 3

You’re now ready to insert your Primary Candle Refill, making sure to press down firmly so it sits below the rim of the glass.

Enjoy your favourite fragrance either alone or combine with another MIXMY scented Primary Candle to create a new Scent Destination™ fragrance combination.

I wish the transformation was as easy as that!

I messed up and ran out of paint, and as colour-matched paint isn’t readily available in the middle of the countryside, I had to make a 1 1/2 hour round trip to get some more so I could finish the final wall 🥴, which meant I finished later than planned, and only just managed to return the hire van with 2 minutes to spare 😮‍💨.

Transformation finally complete!

If you’re planning on coming to Bramham Horse Trials, come find me in the Country Living Pavilion.

And that’s a wrap!
I’m not going to lie, it’s been a full on 7 days at John Lewis, Leeds, but I’ve had such an incredible time.

The MIXMY ‘combine to create’ home fragrance concept has gone down an absolute storm 🙌.

We’re now all packed up and about to get ready for our next pop-up… but before I get to work on that one, I’d like to welcome all of my new John Lewis customers - I’ve loved chatting with every single one of you 😊.

I’m not a natural in front of the camera, so bear with me and my freestyle talk to camera; and excuse the hole in the ceiling - which I only realised was in the shot after I’d managed to do this in one take, and there was no way I was doing it again 🫣

In short, this is a big thank you to John Lewis for supporting the brand and the concept; to the John Lewis staff for looking after me; and most importantly, to all of my new John Lewis customers - thank you for visiting the MIXMY counter and buying into MIXMY’s different take on home fragrance 😊; and finally, a huge thank you to all of my beautiful friends and family who have either stumbled across me as they’ve been out shopping, or made the trip to Leeds especially to see me. You have no idea what a boost you’ve given me during the long days; and a particular thank you to Rachel, Mark and Alex for manning the counter so I could nip off and have a quick break 🥰.
