How do I refill tea lights?

Post: # 192039Post JillStephens7 »

Hello :wave:

I'd like to re-use the little metal things you get tea lights in. I assume that's ok to do? Please does anyone know what kind of wax or wick I'd need to use and any good suggestions of friendly places to get them from & tips on how to do it?

Thank you, Jill :sunny:

that should help you out a bit, just make them like usual candles the wick i think, comes with the metal bit at the bottom to hold it in place as it burns.
