I had many glass candle jars that have burned down to the bottom that could not be re-lit but still had quite a bit of wax at the bottom. What I did was purchase a candle warmer. It looks like my plug in coffee cup warmer I keep on my desk. I bought mine at Michael's for $5.00.
What this does is melt the candle in the glass and it omits the aroma of what ever candle you are burning. You no longer have to worry about a flame because you don't light the wick. But you do have to be careful not to spill the hot wax which is now liquified.
What I did with my glass candle jars is melt the remaining wax and pour it into another jar with a new wick secured to the middle. I made different layers of different aromas and colors so none of the wax went to waste. The warmer is mainly for scented candles.
I recently purchased my candle warmer at Michael's as well, ane experimenting by putting unused jar candles. But the problem is when it start melting, it exploded the wax all over the place. Why is that? Do I need to use special candle to place on this warmer? like a wickless candle? Can you give me some advise before I cover my desk at work with wax all over?? :)

I love my warmer too! I've been experimenting with different combinations of candles, also. They smell seems stronger and lasts longer than conventional burning :)
