pumpkin candle I bought this candleholder for 1.50

Candles are such a big part of Halloween at my house, (especially because my daughter sells Party Lite candles) but due to the economy I couldn’t justify spending a lot of money on candle holders this year. I saw this block style tea light holder at Wal Mart for $1.50 and decided to turn it into a Halloween candle holder for my tea lights when they arrive.

Materials:

  • block candle holder (I’ve seen similar ones at Big Lots, Wal Mart, Target, and some other stores.
  • flat black, orange, and green craft paint.
  • Stencil
  • Sandpaper
