Upcycled Candle Light

Take glass candle holders from Goodwill or the Dollar Tree and attach glass globes to the top to make a pretty lighted candle holder.

You are going to start with candle holders.

I'm using glass but you could use wood or metal. Whatever you may have in your stash or whatever your style dictates. Make it your own.

You will need Clear Gorilla Glue. Use the clear because you don’t want it to turn yellow over time.

You can use other glues if you like, just make sure you read to see what it is used for.  E6000 would work for this project also. Something that will hold all of the elements you are using, together.

Next, you want to take your globe and add glue to the bottom of it. I first set the glass shade on the glass candle holder to get an idea where it sits. Then I added glue to that area.

Just sit it on top of the candlestick, walk away and let it dry. I let mine dry overnight and then came back and added tealights inside the glass.

Look at that detail!

A fun way to repurpose things you have on hand.

Just add candles or tealights.

Here is the very first one I did.

Loving how these look!

These are so cute! I am already looking for more when I go thrifting.

Would you make these?
