To clean the measuring cup and small pot, while still warm, wipe with a paper towel removing the remaining residue of wax and the wicks from the melted candles.
I spent about $10.00 (I only used 3 of the 12 wicks at 75 cents) and gained 3 candles in decorative boxes with lids at about $3.33 each. They will make nice gifts, teacher gifts, hostess presents or you could even sell them at craft fairs, E-bay or Esty.
