At Bougie Rallumée, we are all about sustainability and luxury. We believe that beautiful products can not only beautify your home, but also have a positive impact on the world. One of the best ways to increase that impact is to get creative with what you already have. In this blog, we share inspiring and creative upcycling ideas to give your old candle containers a new life. This way, you can not only enjoy the beauty of our candles, but also contribute to a more sustainable lifestyle.
1. From Candle Container to Stylish Storage Jars
One of the easiest ways to repurpose your old candle jars is to turn them into stylish storage jars. Whether it’s for your bathroom, kitchen, or office, a pretty glass jar can always come in handy. Use them to neatly store cotton pads, cotton swabs, or makeup brushes in the bathroom. In the kitchen, they’re perfect for spices, tea, or sugar. In the office, they can serve as elegant pen holders or for storing paperclips and other small items.
Not only is this a practical solution, but it also adds a touch of luxury to your daily routines. Plus, you won't have to buy new storage, which is good for both your wallet and the planet.
2. Create a Green Oasis: Mini Planters
Got a green thumb? Give your old candle containers a second life as mini planters! Small succulents and cacti are ideal for this type of reuse. They require little water and care, but add a vibrant, natural touch to any space. Place them on your windowsill, your desk, or even in the kitchen to add a touch of green to your interior.
The fun part about this upcycling idea is that you can be creative with how you arrange your planters. Combine different shapes and sizes of containers for a playful yet stylish display. This makes reusing your candle containers not only eco-friendly, but also a fun and creative activity.
3. Mood Lighting: From Candle Holder to Tea Light Holder
If you like mood lighting, you can easily transform your old candle containers into tea light holders. The reflection of light through the glass creates a beautiful, warm glow that is perfect for cozy evenings at home. You can even experiment with different colored tea lights to create a unique atmosphere that suits your interior.
This upcycling idea ensures that your candle containers continue to serve their original purpose, but in a new and refreshing way. It's an easy way to brighten up your home without having to spend extra money on new decor.
4. Organize In Style: Luxury Jewelry Holders
Jewelry such as rings, earrings and necklaces can easily get lost or tangled if not stored properly. Why not use your old candle containers as stylish jewelry holders? The elegant shape and luxurious material of our candle containers make them perfect for this purpose.
Place your favorite jewelry in the containers and place them on your dressing table or bedside table. This way, you always have your accessories at hand and ensure that they stay neat and organized. This simple solution not only helps you to organize your jewelry, but also adds a touch of sophistication to your bedroom.
