It is reusable indefinitely, lots easier to clean up than melted wax, and works wonderfully. RE: Keeping Tall Candles In Their Holder Post By sue (Guest Post) (08/02/2006) I do something like Jean, I hold a match to the bottom of the candle and soften the wax, then I put it into the holder. This saves cleaning up accidental wax drips for klutzes like myself. RE: Keeping Tall Candles In Their Holder Post By Irene (Guest Post) (08/02/2006) I hot glue mine. RE: Keeping Tall Candles In Their Holder Post By Laurie (Guest Post) (08/02/2006) Try wrapping a thin rubber band around the bottom of the candle before placing it in the holder. RE: Keeping Tall Candles In Their Holder Post By Jean (Guest Post) (08/02/2006) Light the candle and let a little of the wax drip into the candle holder (enough to cover the bottom of the holder). Put the candle in while the wax is still hot. Hold it in place for a few seconds. The wax will harden and hold the candle in place.
