Even though people have not used candles as their primary light source in the home for over a century, we still enjoy the atmosphere they create.
In my home, there is a cupboard devoted strictly to candles!! I love the scent of candles, the warm glow of the flame, and the cozy feeling of burning candles.
Candle options are readily available, and you can learn more about making candles on our homemade candle page.
However, candle holder options have become the craze in recent decades! I remember my family having two matching candle holders that were used for all occasions. Now the options are nearly limitless.
The designer candle holders can get expensive, but DIY candle holders are so much fun to make, and most of them are just stunning. This page has wonderful links to inexpensive candle holder ideas and candle holder crafts.
There is something for everyone from farmhouse style, to rustic, to classic!
A gift that I have planned for my sisters and friends this holiday is a lovely teacup candle! Simply scour the thrift stores for inexpensive vintage teacups and matching saucers, then use the technique below to pour candles into the teacups.
I’m going to use permanent glue to attach the cup to the saucer to make a DIY candle holder.
They are so pretty and useful too!
