The jars can be reused, add boiling water and let it melt the wax out. You may need to do this more than once. Don't let the water cool off to much before getting rid of the water. Don't dump waxy water in any drain, dump in your trash.
Thank you for the hint. I will use it very soon, in fact the candle is guttering out as I write this. Have a lovely day. B
If you set the jar in a pot of boiling water , not pour water in the wax, the wax will eventually melt and you can pour into silicone ice trays . Pop out and you have your own little wax melts. Poke holes in the jar lids or the lid of a mason jar and place the melts inside . Keep in the cup holder of your car for a free air freshener .
You can also freeze the wax and cut it out into chunks and save it to make other candles. And did you say you wanted ideas? Well sit down honey!!
