Once you’ve enjoyed every last flicker of your Aroma On The Rocks candle, don’t toss out that beautiful cocktail-inspired glass! Repurposing the glass not only reduces waste but also adds a touch of creativity to your home.

Here are three simple and stylish DIY projects to breathe new life into your candle glasses:

1. Create a Chic Drink Glass

How-To: Remove any leftover wax by freezing the glass for a few hours, then gently prying out the hardened wax. Wash thoroughly with warm soapy water.

Use: These cocktail-style glasses are perfect for serving your favorite mocktails, iced coffee, or even sparkling water.

Tip: Add some flair by garnishing your drinks with herbs or citrus slices to match the glass’s original theme!

2. Turn It Into a Mini Plant Pot

How-To: After cleaning out the glass, add a layer of small pebbles or stones for drainage. Fill it with soil and plant a small succulent or herb.

Use: These compact planters are perfect for a windowsill, desk, or as a centerpiece on your dining table. Even better as floral statements for an event.

Tip: Use labels or paint markers to write the plant’s name or an inspirational quote for a personalized touch.

3. Make a Stylish Storage Jar

How-To: Clean the glass thoroughly and use it to hold small items like cotton swabs, makeup brushes, or office supplies. Add a decorative lid or tie a ribbon around the rim for extra charm.

Use: These glasses are perfect for keeping your bathroom, vanity, or workspace tidy and chic.

Tip: Pair multiple repurposed glasses together for a coordinated organizational setup.
