Materials

  • 1 wax melt warmer tea light or electric
  • 1 wax melt

Instructions

  • If you are using purchased wax melts that come in chocolate bar-form, break off one piece of wax melt. If using single wax melts or cubes, skip this step.
  • Place the wax melt into the dish of the warmer.
  • Light the tea light for the bottom of the warmer or flip the switch or button on for an electric warmer.
  • Once the wax melter is going, the wax melt will slowly melt and release an aroma for several hours, depending on the size of the wax melt used as well as the warmer being used.
  • Allow the wax melt to melt until the fragrance completely dissipates, the tea light puts itself out, you flip the switch of the burner or a set timer on the burner runs its course. See full post above for more information!

Notes

There are primarily two types of wax melt warmers: tea light warmers and electric warmers. The steps are the same for both.
