Get yourself a wax burner. You can put a votive in the bottom, a melt in the top, and the heat from the votive will melt the wax, smelling wonderful!

Surplus candle wax can be used to make batik. This involved painting wax on cloth to form a 'resist' so when it's dyed, the part beneath the wax remains uncoloured.

They are great decor, but do ruin easy and fast. If you have an oil burner, you can use them as you would any scented oil, or even a candle warmer with a deep base will work. Or use a ceramic dish on the wood-burning stove/fireplace(microwave it if no wood-stove).

Use candle melts in a tart warmer. These are usually ceramic or glass. They are one piece with a bowled top to place the melts. Place an unscented tea light in the hallowed out bottom. The flame from the candle warms the top and melts until they are liquid and smell good. There are also electric warmers to avoid flames.
