Keeping large pillar decorative candles forever. When I buy a decorative pillar candle I burn for a little bit until I can fit a tealight candle inside. This way, I just have to replace the tealight and the expensive decorative candle keeps its shape and it's cheaper to buy tealight candles.

Great idea, Carol! I know a lot of women who are"candle crazy" and I will certainly pass this along.

That's a good idea - I have a pretty candle that I didn't want to burn and eventually lose, I will definitely try this idea!!

You can get more use out of your decorative candles, or out of those candles poured right into their forms, by inserting votive candles in the well formed by the burning wax around the wick. I still use star-shaped candles set in terra cotta we used for a 2000 celebration that way.
