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.

If you’re looking for a more detailed tutorial, visit Spiral Candle Centerpiece at Elder One Stop for step-by-step instructions. With a little creativity and effort, you can create a stunning candle centerpiece that will impress your loved ones and add a touch of romance to your home. So why not give this DIY project a try and make this Valentine’s Day one to remember?

How to Make a Cozy Coffee Gift Card Holder

How to Make a Cozy Coffee Gift Card Holder

If you’re gift giving to a coffee lover give them a gift card to their favorite coffee shop in a handmade coffee themed gift card holder. Nicki created this delicious and cozy card with a rounded flap that has a die cut Cup of Joe and some tasty cookies.  For the cookies she die cut and dry embossed them, adding some white pigment ink for color and texture and glitter for sugar. I love how the bold red mug pops on the blue card base!

Inside on the flap is a pocket for the gift card and a sweet stamped and die cut sentiment.
