5 Minute Candle Holders

Are you looking for a quick and easy DIY project that will add a unique touch to your home decor? Look no further than this tutorial for creating tea light holders in just 5 minutes! Not only is this project quick and easy, but it also allows for endless possibilities for customization.

To start, all you need is a sheet of decorative paper or cardstock, scissors, and a tea light. Simply cut the paper into a circle slightly larger than the tea light, fold up the edges to create a small cup shape, and voila – you have a tea light holder!

These tea light holders are perfect for adding a cozy and welcoming touch to any room, and they make great gifts too. Plus, since they are so quick and easy to make, you can create a whole set of them in no time at all.

So why not give this DIY tea light holder project a try? With just a few simple materials and a little bit of creativity, you can create beautiful and personalized candle holders in just minutes.

Then finish off the design with free hand doodling to create original candle holders.

I just can’t resist sharing a few more Halloween cross stitch patterns when they are as cute and quick to stitch as these!

This boo cross stitch from Luzatolye was the first little Halloween cross stitch pattern to catch my eye. I love the pumpkin Os! At just 23 by 8 stitches and using four colors, you can stitch it up in no time. On 14 count fabric it measures 1.6 by.5 inches, or about 4 by 1.27 cm.

Another cutie from the same designer is this jack o’lantern with a witch hat. Another four-color project, this one is 14 by 18 stitches, which is an inch by just a little more than an inch, or around 3 cm square, worked on 14 count fabric.

If you like your minis a little bit bigger, this jack o’lantern with leaves is from White Protea Art and measures 47 by 28 stitches. That comes out to 3.4 by 2 inches, or 8.5 by 5.1 cm, when stitches on 14 count fabric. It uses nine colors.

Or there’s also this little cutie from that same designer. I love the little leaf on top of the pumpkin. At 33 by 36 stitches, it comes out to 2.4 by 2.6 inches, or 6 by 6.5 cm, when stitched on 14 count fabric. I think it uses around eight colors.

Template Love Create also has two mini jack o’lantern cross stitch patterns that I like (I swear I didn’t plan to do two from each of the same designers, it’s just the whimsy of an Etsy search!). There’s one that is more round and one that’s oblong, which I like because it’s different from most of the pumpkin patterns you see. The pattern listings say both are six colors (though they look like four to me) and 28 by 28 stitches, but I don’t think that can be true. Either way they both fit in a 3 inch hoop and would be a super cute little addition to your Halloween decor.
