Seeking tips on half-used candles

I received some very expensive scented candles for Christmas and have enjoyed them immensely, but I need some tips on how to use up every last bit of the remaining wax, which has outlasted the wick.

I did trim the wick to 1/4" each time I lit them and did let them burn in excess of 2 hours each time. Also gently pushed the warm wax adhering to the glass down each time I extinguished them. But ~ I still have half the candle wax remaining with no wick left.

I can't throw them away ~ yet. Any suggestions for reconstituting them as candles? Any suggestions as to what else I could do with that wax if not feasible to use as a candle?

Thanks for any help!

Sandie
