Coastal Inspiration for a DIY Candle Holder
Hi Friends! I have a simply chic Coastal DIY Home Decor Project to share today. Where do you get inspiration from? Pinterest, friends, homegoods, nature? Honestly, this candle holder project just sorta happened. I was playing around in my garage with taper candles, china plates and bowls and I glued the two pieces below together 🙂 I’ll show you what I did with all my taper candles later…
Step 1: like I mentioned about was to glue these pieces together.. Did I take a picture of this? yeah.. no… but look at step 2 🙂
Step 2: wrap twine around the two pieces… I like it at this point, but felt it needed a little something extra.
Does anyone else like to sit outside and work on projects?? I feel so relaxed out there. The dog is happy, I’m happy…The citronella candle is burning, so it hopefully keeps the mosquito’s away
Step 3: I found a base for this diy home decor project.. guess where? Big Lots:) and yes.. I forgot to take a before picture of it. I again wrapped it with twine and then attached the above project to it…
I was sorta multitasking at this point. if you follow me on facebook.. you can by clicking on this link. SimplyChicGirl I was having a slight problem with my miter saw.. the blade needed adjusted and it wasn’t 100% straight.. so my neighbor’s nephew was next door visiting and since I asked ever so nicely, he spent about an hour helping with that and explaining what I need to do in the futre if it happens again.. Miter saw 101.
Simple things really do make me happy.

Behjat horses for courses, you love yours, others don't and look for ways to enhance and change what they have. We all have different taste. I really like what you have recycled here they look fab, thank you for sharing.

How do you get the twine to stay in place while wrapping n go,on smooth?

I took my time and wrapped it slowly.. I used glue to E6000 glue to hold it together.
