Last weekend, I bought a box of assorted jelly jars at a garage sale. 40 jelly jars for $2.00. What the hell was I going to do with these?! They aren't canning jars that can be reused for food storage, they're Smuckers jelly jars. Hmmmmm.
Just found this, and now I have a weekend project. Yea!!!!!

I made a few of those a while ago when hobby lobby had a wicked good sale on glass hard and paraffin wax. Good luck, it's a fun mess!

I was wondering if I could put some citronella oil in some of them for bug candles, what do you think, CM?

Better use would be moonshine.

I would think so. Just make sure it's well mixed so you don't have pockets of citronella that could catch fire poorly. Also, maybe try it out on one first to see if you get the strength of the scent right before you have a bunch that you have to melt down to fix.
