Trash to Treasure: Candleholders

Mallet-Head Candleholder

The heads from four croquet mallets are adhered together, then taper candles are stuck in the holes where the handle use to be.

Oil Lamp Candleholder

The base of some old oil lamps are filled with beach glass and then candlesticks are stood up in the middle. Seashells or river rocks could also be used.

Candelabra

This candelabra was pieced together with a variety of found objects. The frame of an old light fixture is turned upside down, then fastened to a table leg and finials from a curtain rod. A simple wooden base on the bottom keeps it steady.
