Warm the jar gradually by running hot tap water over it first.<\/p>\n<h3>1.3 Removing the Wick Base<\/h3>\n<p>After removing the wax, you will find a small metal wick base stuck to the bottom. To remove it:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Heat method<\/strong>: Fill with hot water to soften the glue, then use pliers to pull it off.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Freeze method<\/strong>: Some find that freezing makes the glue brittle and easier to scrape off.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Pro tip<\/strong>: A small amount of adhesive residue is fine for most repurposing projects. It will be hidden by soil or pencils.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Planter Ideas<\/h2>\n<p>Candle jars make excellent small planters.
