Upcycle Your Candle Jars - Plant Lover Style

Don’t throw away your candle jars! If you’re a fellow plant enthusiast, there are plenty of easy and sustainable ways to give them new life. Here are a couple of fun and eco-friendly ideas to transform your used terrarium candle jars into delightful plant displays.

Turn Your Cactus Candle Jar into a Plant Propagation Jar

Once your terrarium candle has burned down, don't let the jar go to waste. Start by placing the jar in hot water for a minute or two to soften any remaining wax. Gently scoop out the wax, then wash the jar with warm, soapy water. Just like that, you’ve got the perfect little vessel for propagating your plant cuttings in style!

Create a Coastal-Inspired Air Plant Display

Using the same cleaning method as above, prepare your empty large terrarium candle jar for a fun and easy DIY project. Add sand, then layer in decorative stones, small driftwood pieces, and your favourite air plants. Finish it off with seaside touches like seashells, pebbles, or anything that speaks to your personal style. It’s a beautiful, low-maintenance way to bring a bit of the beach and your upcycled terrarium candle jar back to life.
