A beautiful and magnificently decorated Advent wreath is without a doubt part of the great pre-Christmas season. Above all, create a particularly beautiful and festive atmospherethe self-made Advent wreaths. If you don't find the time for this or don't dare to do this task, you can spice up and refine a simple wreath with the right decorations.
If you would like to bring a piece of nature into your home and find the various winter crafts with materials from nature particularly beautiful and exciting, then you have probably already come up with the idea of making an Advent wreath out of wood yourself. For example, you can make the candle holder for the Advent wreath out of small saucers, especially if you use pillar candles.
If you would like to create a rustic Advent wreath, a piece of tree trunk would be the perfect craft material that creates a warm and cozy atmosphere. In this case, the Advent wreath candle holder is the piece of wood itself. All you have to do for the natural candlestick for Christmas is to drill appropriately sized holes in the wood and decorate the Advent wreath with pine greens, berries or mistletoe.
Of course, you can also use smaller tree trunks or wooden discs if you want to make a more subtle and elegant Advent wreath candle holder. As far as decoration is concerned, feel free to implement any creative ideas that suit your taste and that spontaneously come to mind. You are welcome to decorate the smooth surface of the individual wooden discs with Christmas motifs and colors.
A great and original candle holder for Christmas can be made from a variety of materials. Take a look at this charming metal Advent wreath candle holder! For this craft project you will need wire of different thicknesses, which you first spray with paint spray in the desired color. Now you have to bend the wire into the desired shape and create different Christmas figures.
The painted stoneshave been very popular for some time and are a popular craft not only at Christmas, but also on various other occasions or for garden decoration. Embellish the stones by painting snow-covered pine branches and arranging them in a wreath shape. Small metal bowls serve as candle holders for this beautiful Advent wreath, which are also filled with stones to provide a good hold for the stick candles.
Can't resist the wonderful Christmas scents and love the smell of cinnamon and vanilla? Then maybe you can make a deliciously smelling Christmas candle holder out of cinnamon sticks. To do this, you need to arrange the aromatic cinnamon sticks around the candle and stretch a rubber band around them. Then tie a bow of decorative ribbon and decorate the homemade candle holder.
Children love being involved in the great Christmas crafts. How about making some pretty Christmas candlesticks out of salt dough with your sweetheart this year? These can be made in no time and are ideal as party favors. You first have to prepare the salt dough, have your child roll it out and then have them cut out the Christmas motifs with the cookie cutters. Now the appropriate holes are made with the candle and the work of art is finished.
Attractive andelegant candle holdersChristmas decorations can also be made of glass. If you have a clear glass bottle lying around at home, you can transform it into an original candlestick in no time. Fill the bottle with water and add some pine green. The twig looks larger through the glass and is immediately reminiscent of winter and Christmas.
You can also make beautiful and creative candlesticks for Christmas from a wine glass. All you need is a wine glass, a felt coaster and Christmas figures and scattered decorations to your heart's content. Place and glue the pretty decoration onto the coaster. Then glue the edge of the glass in place. Now turn the glass over and decorate the outside if you wish.
Now you can place the candle on the stand and decorate it nicely if necessary. There are no limits to your imagination when decorating. If you don't glue the coasters in place, you can then replace them every year and use them again. This saves you time and also provides variety.
If you accidentally break a wine glass, do not throw it away. Even if only the chalice or the base remain intact, they can be used for your unique Christmas candle holder. For example, the base of the wine glass can be attached to a Styrofoam ball that you have previously decorated with Christmas colors. You can coat the cup with glue and sprinkle it with glitter powder.
If you have an old and unsightly candle holder in the basement that has long been forgotten, you can give it a new life with the right color. Get a gold or silver paint spray and spray the candle holder. It immediately transforms into a chic decorative item and exudes elegance and a bit of nostalgia.
You can also make a stylish and elegant candlestick for Christmas out of concrete. The concrete in combination with copper elements, like the individual candle holders in the picture above, look purist and bring a distinctive Nordic feeling to the room. Such a candle holder is undoubtedly a real eye-catcher.
