COFFEE CANDLES! HOORAY! (btw- do I say ‘hooray’ too much, do you think? hmmm…) Anyway.
I ground up my stale coffee, poured some in the bottom of a jar, & used it to stabilize the wick.
It's very scientific. I used about *that* much.
Then, because I am so crafty and full of awesome, I melted down some icky crayon bits I forgot to take out of my trunk during that heat spell we had a bit ago and poured them into the jar. I am so smart!
Some of the coffee grinds floated to the top. Groovy.
It's a green candle! (see what I did there?)
And… VOILA! A coffee scented candle! Hoor…uhm… I mean… Yeah, it was okay.
I had some stale coffee left, so I just put it into another one of the jars and hid it under the shoe rack by our front door. It’s really nice to smell something other than feet when you get home. =)
How do you use up stale coffee?
