Repurposing guide: candle to tumbler

Our collector's candles are designed to live beyond their first purpose. Once the flame fades, each becomes a refined tumbler: an object of lasting utility, made to bring elegance to your reflective moments, time and again.

This transformation speaks to our philosophy of sustainable luxury, allowing you to carry a piece of Elle's world into your everyday rituals.

I. PREPARATION

When your candle has burned through, remove the outer label. Wipe away any remaining adhesive with rubbing alcohol on a cotton pad. The exterior should be left clean and clear.

II. WAX REMOVAL

Place the glass in the freezer for at least 1 hour. The remaining wax at the bottom will harden and pop out with ease. Remove it gently with a dull butter knife until the interior is mostly clean.

III. COMPLETION

Wash the glass thoroughly. It is dishwasher-safe and made for regular use. What was once a candle vessel becomes a tumbler meant to stay–elegant and familiar.

ELLESSÈNE candle vessel with removable label. Only a small adhesive section secures the label, allowing it to peel away cleanly—an intentional design for easy transformation into a refined tumbler.

Our candle labels are intentionally designed
with only one adhesive strip for ease of removal.

Used in the evening, your vessel carries forward the life of the object. It holds a drink, but it also holds memory. A quiet reference to Elle’s world, present without asking for attention.

Designed with rarity, elegance, and sustainability in mind, this piece was never meant to end when the candle did.

It was made to last.
