Valentine Candle Centerpiece Project

January 20, 2012 by SandraW

Valentine’s Day is a time for love and celebration, and what better way to set the mood than with a beautiful DIY candle centerpiece? This project is not only simple to make, but it also incorporates upcycling, making it an eco-friendly choice. To get started, you’ll need an old CD, ribbon, stickers, glue, and a vase. These materials can easily be found at your local craft store or repurposed from items you may have around the house.

The first step is to create the candle base using the old CD. You can use any type of CD you have, but a plain silver or white one works best. Simply glue the candle to the center of the CD, and then decorate the edges of the CD with ribbon or stickers to create a festive look.

Once your candle base is complete, it’s time to move on to the garland. The garland is what really makes this centerpiece shine, and you can customize it to suit your personal style. Using different colors and textures of ribbon or paper, cut them into small pieces and tie them onto a piece of string or twine. You can also add stickers or other embellishments to make it more festive.

Once your garland is complete, you can wrap it around the vase and secure it with glue or tape. Then, simply place the candle base in the vase, and you’re done! This centerpiece is not only beautiful, but it also creates a warm and inviting atmosphere for your Valentine’s Day celebration.

Book Review: Upcycle – Transform Everyday Objects into Stylish Sustainable Home Decor

upcycled furniture

If you’re passionate about upcycled home decor, eco-friendly crafts, or simply love giving old items a new life, Upcycle: 24 Sustainable DIY Projects to Turn Everyday Objects into Home Decor   is a book that’s sure to spark your creativity.

This beautifully designed book is a treasure trove of clever ideas for turning the mundane into the magical. From old T-shirts and tin cans to wooden crates and glass bottles, Upcycle offers 24 hands-on projects that are equal parts stylish and sustainable. Whether you’re a seasoned maker or just starting your upcycling journey, the instructions are clear, accessible, and often surprisingly simple.

What I love most is that each project doesn’t feel like a “craft”—it feels like decor you’d proudly display in any modern home. Think chic recycled storage solutions, creative lighting with a handmade twist, and even repurposed wall art that doesn’t scream DIY. The photography is gorgeous, making this book just as inspiring as it is instructional.

It’s a great resource for zero-waste living, creative reuse, and recycled crafts for the home—perfect for crafters who want to make a positive environmental impact without sacrificing style. Plus, most of the materials can be found right at home or sourced for free, making it a budget-friendly way to refresh your space.

If you’ve ever looked at an empty jar or an old ladder and thought, “What could I make with this?”—this book will give you the answers.

Upcycle is perfect for anyone looking to reduce waste while creating beautiful, functional items. It’s ideal for eco-conscious decorators, DIY enthusiasts, and creative souls who love a good before-and-after. If you’re on the hunt for inspiring sustainable crafting projects, this book is definitely worth a spot on your shelf (or coffee table!).
