I love candles but no matter what they always use the ‘wick’ first and I end up throwing away lots of candle wax. Is there anyway I can re-use this left over candle because it’s such a waste. Thx 
re-melt it in a double boiler and make new candles! You can buy wicks at any craft store. You can either dip the wicks to make long tapers or you can pour the candles into moulds or pretty containers, add glitter, dried flowers, potpourri, dried fruit slices, etc.
and kk, you’ve been reported! How annoying!!
One tip when burning your candles, make sure the wick is trimmed very short before burning them. I just learned that trick recently when I was at an actual candle shop.
I’ve tried remelting the wax into a currently burning candle, tends to suffocate them. You should be able to find candle wicks at craft stores like Ben Franklins…when I was younger I remember making candles in art class from melted crayons and old milk boxes. Once the candle was cooled we’d peel he milk box away. Did similar with wax coated paper cups.
If you have a signet ring or a something that’d make a cool impression you could melt them for wax seals.
I tried putting "wax" into instructables you can have a look

combine it all. melt it in a non stick pan. put it in moulds and dd bits of decoration (glitter etc). put in a wick. let the wax set. and there you have your very own candle!
