Category: Tealight Holders

Has there ever been a better analogy for life, love or craftsmanship than tealight holders? Of course not. And I could go on and on about them, but instead, I want to inspire you to make your own.

Unlike most candle holders, a tealight holder can come in many shapes and sizes, and you can find inspiration for them virtually anywhere. You can make simple ones for beginners’ craft projects and give them away for Christmas, or go all out and create a Back to the Future themed DeLorean candle holder. Which I will put on my list, too, because you can never have enough ideas.

In this category, you can find all the tealight holders I have made, inspired by all manner of things and techniques. If you are new to this magical world populated by tiny lights, I recommend you start with this video about the various ways to make a tealight-sized hole.
