Hope you can see from the picture what my problem is! The wax has melted out and I can't fit the old candle back out. Any wise mumsnetters know how to solve this?
Many thanks 🙏

If there is no metal pop it into the microwave and slow heat up the wax

Or if there is metal in the wick put it in a hot water bath

V hot water but be careful not to wash the wax down the plug hole

Some great ideas - thank you. I'll give them a go 👍
