I found this Pottery Barn candle holder at a garage sale and knew just want I wanted to do with it. Turn it into a solar/cup holder!
The price tag was still on the bottom and I paid .50 for it! I'm pretty sure there was a hurricane top to this candle holder that probably broke.
You'll Need:
A Standing Candle Holder
Solar Light
Metal Candle Holder
Silicone or other glue of choice
First silicone/glue your metal candle holder onto the standing candle holder base. Let dry completely which is usually about 24 hours.
Pull apart your solar light.
Place the solar light in the metal candle holder.
Here's what it looks like completed.
Use it to light up your porch, patio, walkway, etc.
Here it is lit up.
Pull the solar light out and it doubles as a cup holder if you choose.
Enjoy your beverage while relaxing.
I'll be making this and more things for your patio on Hometalk's Facebook Live DIY - Tuesday. June 27th at 7pm EST.

Now I'm totally convinced that Pottery Barn is overpriced! I love your finished product. Looks very classy and the versatility of a cup holder is brilliant. Adding to my to do list. Thank you for sharing!
