Candy Corn Candle Holder

October 19, 2011 by SandraW

Halloween is just around the corner, and it’s the perfect time to start thinking about decorating your home with spooky yet creative decor. Candy corn is a classic Halloween candy that not only tastes delicious but can also be used to create some fun DIY projects, such as the Candy Corn Candle Holder. This tutorial is an excellent way to use candy corn to add a festive touch to your home decor.

The Candy Corn Candle Holder is a simple and easy-to-follow tutorial that requires only a few supplies, including clear glass votive holders, candy corn, and tea lights. The process is straightforward: fill the votive holders with candy corn, and place a tea light in the center of the holder. The result is a beautiful and colorful candle holder that will add a touch of sweetness to your Halloween decor.

But candy corn isn’t just for candle holders. There are several other fun DIY projects you can create with this classic Halloween candy. Here are five more ideas:

Candy Corn Wreath – Using a foam wreath form, glue candy corn in a circular pattern to create a festive Halloween wreath.

Candy Corn Garland – String together candy corn with twine to create a colorful and festive garland to hang around your home.

Candy Corn Mason Jars – Paint mason jars in the colors of candy corn, and fill them with candy corn to create fun and festive decor.

Candy Corn Centerpiece – Fill a clear vase with candy corn and place a bouquet of fall flowers on top for a beautiful centerpiece.

Candy Corn Vase – Glue candy corn around a plain vase to create a unique and colorful vase to display fall flowers or Halloween decor.

With so many fun and creative ideas, there’s no limit to what you can do with candy corn. So get creative and start decorating your home for Halloween!

Pencil Knitting Patterns

Getting ready for back to school makes me think about pencil crafts, so let’s take a look at some pencil themed knitting patterns! 

I recently made a pencil on a circular knitting machine, and it was a fun, quick, easy project that uses little bits of leftover yarn (and if you don’t have yellow you can make it a colored pencil using whatever color’s your favorite). And if you want to make a bigger version check out this pattern from Orange Olive Road on Etsy.

If you want to knit a pencil pillow by hand, check out Sketchy, available on Ravelry from Shana S. Cohen. This one uses worsted weight yarn and has two size options and the choice to make a pencil with an eraser or a colored pencil. 

Pencil scarves seem to be the most popular kind of pencil knitting pattern, and there are lot of cute ones. This one from Cosy Craft UK mostly uses garter stitch, with some welts to add texture and what looks like an I-cord edging. It calls for DK weight yarn. 

If you want to go all garter stitch try this version from Emsley Co Creations, which uses five colors of DK weight yarn and just a little shaping to make the point of the pencil.

There’s also this fun, mostly stockinette so it looks like it curls a bit, pencil pattern that looks like it’s worked in chunky yarn from Little Knits Studio. This one uses just a little garter stitch and easy shaping for the point. 

If you don’t want a pencil scarf, how about some pencil socks? The No. 2 Pencil Socks from The Yarn Enabler are available from Ravelry and use five colors of sock yarn. They feature wide ribs to mimic the texture of a pencil and have options to be worked from the top down or the toe up. 

Needs Sharpening by Alexander Walker is a free pattern on Ravelry that uses five colors of sock yarn to make a sort of shortie sock. The little bit of black at the tips of the toes inspired the name. These, too, can be worked in either direction and are available in three sizes.
