Candle Holder
Candle holders are designed to protect surfaces, enhance candlelight, and add personality to
spaces. By making them, we can blend creativity with utility, crafting something beautiful
and meaningful.
In making Candle Holder, we need the following materials:
• Candle
• Coconut Shell
• Popsicle Sticks
• Round shaped stick
Here’s a step-by-step guide to making a candle holder.
Step 1: Prepare the round-shaped stick and popsicle sticks.
• Apply strong glue (like wood glue or hot glue) to one end of the round stick.
• Press it firmly onto the popsicle sticks.
• Hold them together until the glue sets, ensuring they are securely attached.
• Continue this process until half of the round stick is covered with popsicle sticks.

• Continue until the entire circle is filled with popsicle sticks, ensuring the
structure is strong and stable. Let the glue dry completely before proceeding.

Step 3: Place the Coconut Shell on the Side with Half of the Popsicle Sticks.
• Position the coconut shell so that it rests on the side of the round stick where only half of the
popsicle sticks are attached.
• Make sure the coconut shell is aligned and stable.
• Apply glue to the bottom edge of the coconut shell and press it gently against the popsicle sticks.
• Hold it in place for a few moments until it is securely attached. Let the glue dry completely.
Step 4: Add Popsicle Sticks to the Sides
• To create a sturdy foundation, glue popsicle sticks along the sides of the coconut
shell and the round stick base.

Step 5: Place the Candle Inside the Coconut Shell.
• Once the coconut shell is securely attached, place the candle (such as a tea light or
small pillar) inside the shell.
• Ensure the candle fits properly and is stable within the shell.
Step 6: Light the Candle.
• Once the glue has dried and everything is securely in place, light the candle inside
the coconut shell.

Step 7: Use it as Decoration for Your Study or Work Area.
• Now that your candle holder is complete, place it in your study or work area.
• You can also utilize the space below the coconut shell to store small
items like jewelry, earpods, or miniatures.
• This adds functionality to your candle holder, making it not only a
decorative piece but also a space-saving storage solution.
