storage help: glade oil candle refills:updates

[amy s]

I bought a bunch of the starter kits and used the glass warmer part for a craft. Now I have the candle ( refills)that came in the original ( starter) set... any ideas on easy, safe storage???? will they melt, blenmd fragrances, etc??? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bumping this thread for others since there were so many good ideas.....

I think they might melt if stored in a too warm place. I would separate them by scent & store them in ziploc bags, then put them in a box. I would store them @ room temperature. I'm curious what craft project you made? I keep paper clips in one & sewing pins in another because of the magnet in them. I've even turned them upside down & put M&Ms in them. Oh! my elegant candy dish. LOL!

I had the kids (at teh shelter) put flowers in them for moms.... :) they loved it, it was easy.... I just put the foam stuff into it basically flat across the top, and they stuck in the flowers.....

GOOD IDEA:
some of mine just became paperclip holders!

Here is what I need to store: the refills for the scented oil CANDLES.... not the scented oil refills. these are the little candels athat melt into oil....

I have all the candles, but used the dishes that came with them. Any more ideas on how to store...I just thought of egg cartons maybe???

I would just put them in ziploc bags seperated by scent and throw in a drawer where it does not get too warm. They are just like any candle really.

What you can do with them if you don't wish to burn them is pop out the metal wick thiny in them and put them in a heat proof container (a coffee cup will work) and set the heat proof container on one of those candle warmers (you can get at Walmart for like 5 bucks) and you now have flameless candles.

great idea! I would use egg cartons if they fit pretty good & maybe seperate my smell.You could wrap each in plastic wrap too.

Do you like turtles? how about just chocolate candy? There is one I'm thinking of but can't remember the name.

Buy some candy that comes in a box with molded areas for each piece - like the Russell Stover boxes - Eat ALL the candy - then use the box to store the individual candles. They store safely and stackably in the frig or freezer and no worries over melting.
