Plant Stand
Secure a square grate to the top of an old column. (Add a wood piece to the bottom to stabilize, if necessary.) Place a piece of glass on top for a smooth surface.

Candle Box
Construct a box to fit a grate and set candles on top. (The box becomes a reservoir for the melted candle wax.)
