Handmade candle holders bring earthy elegance to mantels or coffee tables. Use natural materials like birch logs, wrought iron, or sliced wood rounds to complement farmhouse or cabin decor.

Materials You’ll Need

  • Birch logs or tree slices
  • Glass votives
  • Drill and spade bit
  • Metal wire or brackets

Assembly Tips

Drill holes into wood slices to hold votives. Wrap birch bark around glass jars secured with wire. For a modern twist, combine wood and metal elements like iron pipe brackets.
