These are also a bit different from the pods, so we also got these liners (they look a bit like cupcake liners, but more robust) so that the wax wouldn’t melt directly on the warmer.

This is a pretty old post that’s been lying around on my computer for many, many months, so I thought I’d just get it published so I don’t have to look at the ugly thing anymore.
