Beach Theme Glass Candle Holder

Beach Theme Glass Candle Holder
These DIY candle holders are perfect for adding a touch of seaside charm to your home or beach house decor! Each holder is wrapped with wired jute and adorned with delicate seashells, and some have an extra touch of elegance with white painted wood beads. The sand inside the glass creates a beachy atmosphere and securely holds the candles in place.

Let's Get Started

STEP 1:

A)    Run a bead of hot glue along the base of the glass candle holder.

B)    Adhere the coiled wire to the glue.

C)   Continue adding hot glue and coiled wire around the bottom edge. Wrap the coiled wire up around the glass candle holder.

D)   When you reach the desired height of coiled wire on the glass candle holder, cut the coiled wire and hot glue it in place.

STEP 2:

A)    Hot glue a seashell on the front of the glass candle holder.

STEP 3:

A)    Gather enough small wood beads to wrap around the glass candle holder. Note: Allow a space for the sand dollar. Paint the wood beads white. Let dry.

STEP 4:

A)    String the wood beads and sand dollar onto a length of beading wire, placing the sand dollar in the center.

STEP 5:
