Dirty Talk

To keep a handle on candle wax, when it comes to lighting candles for the dinner table, I place four or five votives in a small dish, and pour a little bit of water into the dish. The water chills the dripped wax, and all you have to do is scoop it out and drain out the water.

Don't discard your old bits of scented wax from old candles. Use a cheese grater to shave the bits into managable bits. Place them in a net material. Leave them in your linen closet, drawers and closets to keep them smelling fresh.

Use fragrance free wet wipes to clean the dust off candles and to clean your leather sofa.
