Candle light is one of the most romantic and soothing splash of radiance that changes a completely dry atmosphere into something alluring. Candles have been witness to family chats, tender dinners, or a student transported back into time studying by the flame. These 15 DIY creative candle holders therefore accentuate these moments, titivate your surfaces, and employ recycling. Look around for simple household objects like burlap, rope, or film/pictures. Cover small glasses or heat resistant containers and add your tea light candle to it. Wrap a scalloped cutout pattern around a square pillar candle or cover a plain votive with glitter for a shimmery twinkle.

Use your discarded spice mill, salt, and pepper shakers as votive for your tapered candles. You can make a holder out of your mason jar by tying on a leather strap to the top to act as a holder and fasten a fresh fir sprig. Glue paper cutouts to plain DIY candle holders for a shaky peek-a-boo pattern. You can hand paint them any color or make a pattern like the Catherine Holm design.

Use mercury glasses as candle holders or stick candles into mini wood blocks and paint them. Go contemporary with white plaster votive. Pour a white plaster mixture into square molds and press in tea light shells while still setting. Put the tea lights back once set and removed from the molds. Paint pastel stripes or the bottom for a soft touch with the white of the plaster. Do the same thing with cement with a round shaped mold. Attach lace into the molds to have lace-printed votive.
