I have a penchant for candles. I'm one of those people who doesn't see anything wrong in lighting five or ten differently scented candles in one room. I've always loved the candles that come in jars mostly because I've been repeatedly known to light a candle, leave a room, and come back to find it had melted all over my table or cd's. I probably shouldn't be allowed within 5 feet of a candle. In recent years though as I've gotten more responsible around fire (or as I think I've become more responsible) I've been veering away from candles in jars simply because then you're left with this icky, black, soot-stained jar and it's one of those items I feel like I should be able to find a use for. Currently this was their use:
A cozy nook full of food, friends, books, and crafts; a place to hide, to think, to find comfort, to explore.

A Candle's Transformation
You know those things you have sitting around the house because some day, one day, you are positive you will find a use for them? Maybe it's pipe cleaners, maybe it's popsicle sticks, or velcro, or fabric, or bags, or maybe, just maybe even candle jars.
