It doesn't always have to be expensive candle holders; it can also be a natural candle holder. This is cheaper and looks very good. Why not try it with a pumpkin? For the autumn season and especially for Halloween, a pumpkin is a must for table decoration, so why not repurpose it as a candle holder:
Pumpkin as a candle holder
Designing a pumpkin as a candle:
What you’ll need:
- nice pumpkin (ornamental pumpkins)
- knife, apple corer
- ivy, berry branches, etc.
Instructions:
Cut a recess the size of a candle into the center of the desired pumpkin (smaller ornamental pumpkins look nice). Make it deep enough so that the candle does not fall over and stands securely. This works best with an apple corer. To make the recess disappear a little, you can decorate around the cutout with ivy or berry branches. If you then set up 3-5 pumpkins, it looks very pretty, not just for Halloween.
