You could also pop them in the dishwater, and then peel off the remaining paper afterward.

So yesterday when I was feeling gloomy about the hodge podge of my house, I started redecorating with my favorite things that were still packed from the latest move. My candle jars looked...unlike things that make me happy, so I pulled this post up again. Within an hour I had lovely candles and a small place in my home that makes me truly, achingly happy. Taking on another corner today.

That's it! The labels stick very well, and to reuse the bottle or jar, just soak it in hot water for a little while. <br /><br />And, as an added bonus, you can mix baking soda into the leftover curds to make white craft glue for another project!Kyliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00269722603607351775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724594058209899258.post-79955448234779242482011-02-18T19:12:46.025-05:002011-02-18T19:12:46.025-05:00I've always hated those original labels too.
