Old candle wax to wax melts

Hello all,

I’m pretty new to all this and was wondering if anyone had any tips and tricks for turning old candles into wax melts. The candles I have are from Yankee Candle and I would love to make the wax into wax melts to reuse it a little more. I have two candles that are low enough to a point where lighting the wick is tough to get to as it’s the jar style candles from the company.

If anyone has any sort of tips and tricks or even a full tutorial for doing this it would be greatly appreciated. I would love to be able to use the wax and get the scents out more before tossing the entire thing.

Current candle scents i have are the sparkling cinnamon, vanilla crème brûlée and beach walk.
