Wood Candleholder Decoration

Hello everyone! Today we will be making a wooden candle holder. For this craft, I only had to buy a wooden hexagon shadow box from Michael's craft store for just one dollar. If you decide to purchase the tumbling blocks and greenery along with the shadow box, you will only spend around four dollars on creating this craft.

Materials

Wooden Hexagon 6" x 5" Shadow Box-Purchased at Michaels

Tumbling blocks (12)-Purchased at Dollar Tree

Paint- colors-celery for wooden shadow box and antique white for block

Paintbrush

Faux Greenery 

Hot glue

Floral snips

One battery-operated candle

Optional-gold flower embellishments


Begin by removing any screws, and twine from your shadow box. Next, apply your paint to your wooden shadow box.  


Next, take your tumbling blocks and begin to apply paint onto each block. For this, I am using twelve blocks. To start with I only painted the front of each block.



Begin to apply your hot glue onto your blocks. You will glue two blocks together. This will leave you with six sections once all blocks are glued together.

Once your blocks are glued together you can finish applying your paint to each section. 


You are now ready to add your block sections to your wooden shadow box. Begin by flipping your box over. I used a pencil and marked exactly where I wanted each block section to be placed. Once you have decided where you want your legs to go on your wooden box, take your glue, and add each section to your box.




You are now ready to add your greenery to your box. Using your floral snips, cut sections of your greenery to size, and add them to the top section of your box. I applied just a little glue and added greenery around the top section of my box.



This last step is completely optional. If you would like, you can add some gold flower embellishments around your greenery. I decided to, and I love how it turned out.



Your wood candleholder is now complete! Just add your battery-operated candle, and add it to any space!  I love how simple this was to create. And I think the gold flower embellishments look great with the greenery as well. I hope you have fun creating your very own. Be sure to let me know if you decide to create one too! Thank you so much for stopping by, and creating with me. I'll see you soon.

Easy Steps to Create a Cozy Autumn Tablescape at Home

Hello everyone! I’m excited that you decided to visit the blog today. I wanted to share how to create a cozy autumn tablescape at home. My goal was to design something warm and inviting, as our table is a space where we share conversations, drink coffee, tackle homework, and simply enjoy each other’s company.  I typically don’t go all out when decorating my dining table, but I wanted to show you how I styled it using decor pieces I already had. I would love for you to join me in this decorating adventure! Watch the video tutorial Create a Cozy Autumn Tablescape at Home Items I'm adding to my table:  -White tablecloth runner - Battery-operated leaf lights  - Reusing glass jars  - Mini pumpkins and other fall decorations  - Small "Hello Fall" sign  - Faux flowers I began by spreading my white tablecloth down the center of the table.

How I Styled 6 Fall Trays Using Simple Reused Decor

  This fall, I wanted to challenge myself to decorate with just a few simple items—things most of us already have tucked away in our craft bins. With one round tray, a Dollar Tree lantern, a battery‑operated LED candle, a handful of faux florals, and a mix of Dollar Tree pumpkins, I created six different autumn looks. Each one feels cozy, seasonal, and unique, all without buying a bunch of new décor. My goal was to show how versatile your everyday pieces can be. By swapping out colors, textures, and small accents, you can build fresh designs that fit your style and your space. Watch the video tutorial Decorating Each Tray My First Tray: Classic Lantern & Autumn Florals For my first tray, I began by placing a round tray on a woven placemat to create a cozy base. Next, I placed the black lantern in the center and added a small LED candle inside. I figured this would provide a soft autumn glow that I love. I took yellow faux florals and arranged them around the lantern to brighten...

How to Make Easy Beaded Wine Glass Charms

 I love creating small, simple crafts that add a personal touch to gatherings, and these wine glass charms were such a fun project. They’re easy to make, customizable, and perfect for parties, holidays, or even a cozy night in with friends. Each charm slips right onto the stem of a wine glass, making it easy for everyone to keep track of their drink. These charms come together quickly using beads, wire rings, and small metal pendants. You can mix and match colors and charms to fit any theme, and each one turns out a little different — which is part of the fun. Watch the video tutorial Materials Here’s what I used to make my wine glass charms: Wire rings Beads Small metal charms Jewelry pliers If your wire rings need trimming, use wire cutters—mine didn’t, so I didn’t need them for this project.  Choose your beads and charms Pick out the colors and shapes you want to use. I chose soft pinks, purples, and clear beads, along with heart, spiral, and flower charms. Each charm desig...

Three Easy Candle Jar Ideas for Cozy Porch Décor

I've always thought there was something so comforting about soft candlelight, especially when it’s paired with a few simple faux florals and greenery. Today, I’m sharing a sweet little project in which I decorated a glass jar in three different ways. Each jar has its own personality, glow, and gentle charm. These pieces are perfect for porch décor, but they work beautifully anywhere you want to add a touch of warmth. I love projects like this—simple materials, quiet moments, and a finished piece that feels peaceful and handmade. Watch the Video Tutorial Materials I Used Clear glass jar Battery‑operated candle Faux string of pearls Faux succulents Faux vine Bright pink faux flowers (tops removed from stems) Yellow faux flowers Faux foliage Optional: woven mat or tray for display Jar 1: Succulents & String of Pearls For the first jar, I wanted something earthy and calming.
