DIY ... Red and White Button Candle Holder

 Sweet little candle holder for almost any occasion. 
I took a 6" clear glass dessert or salad plate ... placed a LED tube candle in the middle and hot-glued red, white and clear buttons all around. Buttons with a shank were nice for building up the layers.

Any color scheme could be used. This was made last year for a Christmas present for a friend. 


I tied some vintage material around the top and added a rusty key. Burlap or lace would look nice with it.    



FUN ... QUICK and EASY to make. 

Not to early to be thinking about Christmas presents.

Blessings,
