Customized Candle Holder - Quick and Simple
Usually my videos have a voiceover, unfortunately though, I was rather sick when I made this video, and my voice just sounded awful. So instead of putting you through listening to my croaky voice, enjoy some music!
This was truly a quick and simple project; it took me an afternoon to make including all the drying time. Active work on it, maybe an hour. It is best though to let things dry properly between layers though.
Found this wooden blank in craft shop, it was already quite nice with a laser cut leaf pattern, only the bottom was too blank. So, I decided to simply add just a bit more adornment there. Synthetic lace ribbons were perfect for this, so I used 2 different kinds and simply glued them on with gel matte medium, also sealing them in in the process. After drying I painted with acrylic paints, brown base coat, blue for the bottom, some chalky finish light brown overbrush and light blue respectively. Gold paint for the finish.
I found the perfect rectangle candles for it too! It could be used as a pencil holder or a catch-all for any desk! If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments. I also would appreciate your feedback. Thank you for watching! I hope you're having a nice day! Bye!

Pirate Treasure Trinket Box - Altered Wooden Blank with Mixed Media
This is really special and the perfect way to enjoy square candles! I hope you feel better soon.
Thank you so much!
Another stunning piece! 💖
Thanks, you're so kind!
Beautiful as always! Sorry you were so poorly. Looking forward to hearing your voice in the next video. 😉
Thank you! And voiceover will continue to be the normal. :)
So very cute.
Thank you! 😊
Sea glass is a fantastic material and this is an excellent way to showcase it. You should be really proud of this project.
Thank you very much!
Love it, love it, love it! 😊 This is definitely one of my favourites you've done in the past few months. I have some sea glass, now I need to glamorize them.
Yey! I'm glad to hear that! Seaglass is just so pretty
That's Beautiful ❗
Colors that would be the Birthstone Colors !!!!!!!
Oooo that's an intriguing idea! Would be quite an array!
Amazing Transformation
Glad you like it! Thanks!
Very very beautifull!
Thank you very much!
Its fabulous and you can keep crafting beads and such in a beautiful upcycled container. Thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you! Yes, that's exacly how I think about it. I need containers to keep crafty bits in, might as well make them pretty! You get it, it makes me happy!
That's really pretty 🪻
Oh, thank you! :)
It looks beautiful. I really like blue, but maybe a deep and strong purple would look nice on a future jar/container beautification. 😊
Thank you! That's a good idea. I'll make something purple next time if I'm giving it away or selling it. Purple doesn't go with my home decor though ;)
This is a fantastic use for something that could otherwise go to waste. And it will be a much nicer home for your brushes.
Yes! Thank you! :)
Very cool!!
Thank you!
Perfection 💕
That's so generous! Thank you
You're the queen of spooky crafts
Awww thank you so much!
Mwahahahahaa ❤❤❤❤
😜
Another beautiful upcycling success! I really like the texture and decorating elements you used on it. Now your brushes have a pretty home to live in. 😊
Yes, I really enjoy giving things "pretty homes"! Thank you
It looks fab and so are all the others. Great job as always! 😊
Thanks! 👻
Adorable! 😭😭😭 absolutely love the way you put the cobwebs on that tiny candle holder. Love the bubbling cauldron! 😍🖤😍
Thank you! Thought I'd cram in some more little spoooky decorations that are too simple to make a video about.
Spooooooooooooooooooky. This is really excellent.
😊Thank you! 👻
Beautiful. This time I like both equally. This was a very nice series. 😊
Thank you for watching the whole series! :)
Another super pretty pair of potion bottles. I think the jellyfish one is my new favourite.
Thank you! It's one of my favourites too!
I don't need to drink the potion to know I love these.
Hehe, nice! And thanks
I'm so happy you repurposed that bottle. It turned out lovely and especially like the marble top. The little is one is cute too. 😊😊
Thanks so much 😊
How pretty! I really like the shape of the first bottle, but both look nice.
Thank you! 😊
I like that these little bottles have transformed into something new and pretty. Beautifully done as always.
Thank you! 😊
These are so pretty. I love that your series now has a poison bottle as well as elixirs and potions. Keep up the awesome work!
Thanks! Variety is fun!
❤❤❤❤
Thanks for watching!
Gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
So fricken pretty!!
Awwwwww, thanks!
Love it!!
Yey! :) Thank you
Both turned out beautiful. I think I prefer the second one more.
Glad you shared! I'm always curious which one people like more
These are super pretty. Another success. The blue is my favourite.
Thanks so much 😊
They turned out lovely! I think the winner for me is the blue potion bottle.
Thanks! Glad to hear about which one is your favourite
So happy you find such a beautiful way to display the froggies ❤ I absolutely love the tiny shells. They are *chefs kiss 💋 😊
Thank you! The froggies were just too awesome to hide away!
Ohhh absolutely gorgeous bottles!
Thanks! :)
Such a pretty result. They bring back memories and I'm so glad that you reused these elements. ❤
Thank you! :)
This is fantastic. So many different elements. It really shows your dedication.
Awww, I had a lot of fun making it! It was a bigger project with many steps, you're right
The celtic knot and elephant labels are a great idea. Makes them very unique.
Thanks! I thought they would fit the theme!
This is stunning. So inspirational. Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!
This is so cute! Looks like it would be in an old dusty professor’s house. I love it!!!
That's kind of what I was going for! I'm glad you picked up the vibe! ☺️
As always, adorable ❤
Aawww, thank you!
The whole thing is amazing, I love it so much!
I'm so glad you do! Thank you
What a fantastic box of curiosities. All the details and tiny bits. Trying to decide which nook is my favourite...I can't. I also like the frog poster. A fabulous job as always! Keep it up.
The froggies inspired this whole project! Glad you like it!
Wow! This is just too cute. So many lovely bits and bobs.
:) Thanks, I love the trinkets
Omg! This is SOOOO CUTE! I love your creativity and creations 💖💖💖
Thank you so much!
Omgsh that is gorgeous! I'm not usually a fan of the color blue but that color is stunning!
Thank you so much!
This turned out super pretty. Blue is the best colour. I hope the painting stages stay around in future videos, they're very relaxing.
Aww, thank you! And thanks for the feedback
Another lovely project done with finesse. It turned out beautiful! I enjoy watching you paint and never skip that part.
Thanks! And thanks for the feedback on the painting!
