Pumpkin Candle Holders

This is an easy DIY project that is perfect for the Fall holiday season. These candle holders are a fun and beautiful addition to Fall/Halloween parties or even as part of a Thanksgiving table centerpiece!
This may seem like a challenging sort of project, but I promise it's easy, and 10 minutes are all you need to create a beautiful assortment of your own pumpkin candle holders.
Here are the supplies needed for this project:
To turn these pumpkins into candle holders, trace the diameter of the candle on the top of the pumpkin, around the stem area. Then, using a sharp knife, carefully cut around the circle you just traced. I used a double-serated grapefruit knife and it worked very well.
Since these are made from real pumpkins, they won't last forever. They should last a few days, but if you want them for a specific event, I'd suggest waiting until the day before or the day of to make them, just to be sure they last!
