Repurposed Candle Warmer to Mug Warmer

Do you have a candle warmer that you aren't using? If so, before you go donating it or giving it away, ask yourself this...does your coffee or tea go cold before you finish drinking it? If your answer is yes, I think I have a solution. Repurpose it as a mug warmer. I hear laughing because it sounds crazy, but this works...seriously.

You see, I purchased this candle warmer when it was all the rage to have Scentsy parties and everyone had to have a candle warmer. It was fun at first, but it gets really costly to keep buying the wax. Although, I've heard that placing laundry scent beads in it will give off a nice smell. I haven't tried that yet, but maybe I'll give that a try when I'm done using it to warm my drinks.

Anyhow, here is my old candle warmer that was gathering dust.

Your candle warmer may be different from mine, but I just removed the wax collection bowl from the top of the warmer and plopped my cup onto it. It's important that you have a flat surface to place your mug onto. If your warmer doesn't have a flat surface for your mug, I wouldn't recommend you do this. 
 
Now, I no longer have to worry about cold coffee or tea. This keeps my drink warm down to the last drop.  
 
What do think...too crazy?
