If you’re burned out on buying new candles, then behold this brilliant device called the “Rekindle Candle” by designer Benjamin Shine, which creates a new candle as another candle burns down.

The Rekindle Candle is a candlestick holder which collects the melting wax to form a new candle. As the candle burns, melting wax drips from the candle and accumulates inside the transparent stem where a length of wick is centrally located. Once full, the new molded candle can be removed from the central section to start the process again.
