Our pots are way to pretty to throw away!

Have you ever looked at you used Mon Dada pots, and thought “what a waste to throw this beautiful pot away!” Well you’re absolutely right! Instead of throwing them away, you can easily turn them into plant pots. Use the pots to plant your favourite flowers or herbs, and you will be able to enjoy them endlessly.

Here's how to give your pots a second life:

1. Prep Your Pot:

First things first, clear out any leftover wax that may not be burned up. You can easily scrape it off with a fork!

2. Drainage is Key:

For healthy plants, proper drainage is crucial.

  • For the handy people around us: Grab a drill and create a few holes in the bottom of the pot. This allows excess water to escape, preventing root rot.
  • The Simpler Solution: Add some small rocks to the bottom of the pot before adding soil. This creates a space for water to drain without needing holes.

3. The Fun Part:

Now comes the fun part! Fill your pot with soil, plant your new plant in its new pot and make sure to water it gently.

Voila! You've successfully repurposed your used candle pot into a beautiful handcrafted planter. Not only is this a sustainable choice, but it also adds a unique touch to your home or garden.
