How to make a recycled candle holder

In today's entry we will see how to make a recycled candle holder. And following the step by step you can make several at the same time, perfect for decorating a party table and making them the center of attention.

We will only need a few materials, some empty tuna cans and a little creativity and we will have our candle holders ready.

Makings:

  • Empty tuna can.
  • Modeling paste.
  • Cord.
  • Washitape.
  • Scissors.
  • Star-shaped mold.

Processing:

The first thing we will do is perform the star that will serve as an ornament for the candle holder. For it We will cut some modeling paste and make a ball, crush it and with the mold we will cut its shape. Next we will do a hole to be able to pass the cord later and finally with a stamp We will mark the desired shape as a die.

We could also avoid these steps and place any adornment that we have, depending on the effect we want to give the candle holder. 

  • We will glue the washitape around the can. In this case the washitape is 3 cm wide, otherwise you can give it two turns to cover the can.
  • We will cut the cord leaving space to be able to tie the decoration later.

  • We will pass the cord through the star. (If you are going to make several candle holders, the trick is to do it in series with all the steps).
  • We will go around the can with the cord and tie the star with a knot.

And with this we would have our candle holder ready, we just need to place a candle inside. I have added a little coarse salt to keep the candle in the center and for a little decoration but this is mandatory.

I hope you liked it and that you can put it into practice, you know I will love to see it on any of my social networks. Until the next craft.
