Quick, beautiful candle holders
March 13th, 2007 by CandaceI’m in the process of redecorating my dining room. Because I could do some serious financial damage, my husband has put me on a budget. I’m always at a loss for what to do for a centerpiece, but always come back to the trusty candles-option. I found the perfect candle holders, but ofcourse they were totally out of the budget. So I opted for an even better idea that was cheaper and looked better.
Aren’t they great? And if you look closely, they are just bowls and plates glued together. That’s it! Find some bowls and plates that you like, or use ones you already have. Get some apoxy, let them sit over night, and you have fabulous and original candle holders.

Wow, those look so great! Brilliant idea!
I just gave our dining room table a summer makeover, too – put on the red-and-white checked cloth and topped it with a cake plate full of candles (one of those cake pedestal things Martha Stewart seems to have a million of). Not only does it look nice, but I have another use for a thoughtful wedding gift someone gave us.
