YANKEE CANDLE WAX TART RECIPES

HOW TO CREATE CUSTOM SCENTS

Using your tarts you can mix different scents together to create personal aromas.

Just make sure when mixing you do not exceed the size of one individual wax tart when putting your pieces together.

Please note that wax tarts are NOT candles, as they don't have wicks.  They are designed to be melted in a tart burner only! This is similar to an oil burner, but with a deeper top, to enable the tart to melt safely, without running over, as it may do in an oil burner.

Don't throw away your wax tart after one melt!

You should be able  to have 8 hours of fragrance, I find that if you use 2 tealights worth of burning time, which usually last 4 hours each, you will be able to get the full value of your tart, you might be able to use a 3rd tealight, but you will know yourself when the fragrance has gone.

You don't have to let your wax tart burn for 8 hours all at once, when you have had enough fragrance, just blow out your tealight, and relight it, or use a new one, when you want another fragrance boost!

When you think that there is no fragrance left, let your tart go cold and solidify, and either put it in the fridge or freezer for 10 minutes, you will then be able to pop the wax out of the top of your tart burner, DO NOT try and prise the tart out with a knife, or any sharp object, as you will damage your burner, making it very unsafe to use. You should find, that if you follow the instructions, the wax will pop out very easily, if it still sticks, which is usally rare, what I do is use the tip of a rounded spoon to gently tap it out.
