I love the way candle fragrance makes our home so inviting. I considered purchasing the new electric wax warmers I'd heard friends talking about, until I saw the price. I refused to spend $20 to melt wax!
Over the years either from thrift stores or yard sales, I've accumulated several electric coffee mug warmers for a dollar or less. I also had several almost empty candles. My solution, I simply plug in the mug warmer, and place the remains of the candle on it. When the candle no longer has any scent, I pour the wax out and add a new scented wax cube I've purchased. 6 pack of cubes are $2 or less, and each lasts a day or two. I love the way our home smells now and love how much less I spent to get it smelling this good.
Editor's Note: If your candle wax is not already in a jar or other container, place it in an old mug before heating. Do not put wax directly on the warmer or it will be messy when it melts.

I have been trying to avoid the hype about these scentsy warmers mainly because I'm to cheap lol but came across your idea. I already have a mug warmer that I have never uses and yep got a mug to, so thank you very much for the info meant a lot to me.
