Today we see together how to empty the windows correctly and some ideas to reuse them at home in an innovative way, combining them with your furniture.

How to empty glass containers

There are two methods you can use:

1. Pour some hot water into the glass jar and let it cool for at least 2 hours: this way the wax will detach from the glass. You may only need a knife to remove the wick.
2. Place the glass in the freezer for at least 20 minutes for the wax to shrink and detach from the glass. In order for it not to get stuck, in case of a tighter exit than the base, remember to cut the wax before freezing it, so that it is easy to remove.
