Up | Previous | Next


This adorable candlestick holder makes a wonderful holiday decoration. To make it less expensively, you can put more space between the Christmas light charms, or make that design on the top and the pewter stars on the bottom ring of the candle holder. Step one: Cut a length of Elasticity to approximately seven inches. Put one end into a Bead Stopper. Prepare your antique silver pewter faceted star charms by attaching each to a sterling silver open jump ring. String two 4mm Czech glass ruby AB druks, followed by a charm, repeat until you have used all the charms. Tie the ends together and dab with a drop of GS Hypo cement. When it is completely dry, trim the excess elastic. Step two: Cut a length of Elasticity to approximately 9 inches. Put one end in a Bead Stopper. String a antique silver pewter deco cube then a Christmas light charm. Continue this pattern, rotating through the colors of the lights until all the charms are strung. Tie a square knot in the elastic and dab with GS Hypo cement. When the adhesive is dry, trim the excess elastic. Place the rings on the candle holder and you are done!
