Glass Candle Stand


One thing we really like is lit candles with dinner. When you are having dinner outside during these summer months it's tough to have a candle because the wind keeps blowing it out. This simple candle stand helps keep the wind from blowing our your candles and they look great!

This project came from things we had laying around the house. The glasses are a couple of old glasses left from a big set we had once upon a time. This seemed like a great way to get them out of the cupboard and put them to a good use. The candle holders were just waiting to be used on a project like this. Of course you can find these things at a craft store.

Here's what you'll need:

  • Wood Candle Stands
  • Old Glasses
  • Ribbon
  • Small Sea Shells
  • Thick Clear Household Glue
  • Hot Melt Glue
  • Acrylic Paint

First I painted my candle stands with acrylic paint.
Decorate your candle stands with small sea shells and hot melt glue. Don't have any sea shells? Use pretty rocks, small pinecone's or anything else you think would make your candle stands attractive.
Center and glue the glasses to the candle stand using Household Glue.
Tie a ribbon around the center of the candle stick holder.
Put a candle in the glass and you have a beautiful table decoration that works really good outside. The glass works like a hurricane lamp and keeps the wind from blowing out your candle.

We hope you liked this project. If you build it and your friends ask where you got such a clever idea, please tell them that you got it at RunnerDuck.com.
