Creepy-Crawly Halloween Candle Holders

This is a dollar store project all the way! Two cute, hand-made candle holders only cost me about $8... which would most likely only cover one candle at other stores. I dont plan on actually lighting these candles, even though they would smell amazing being pumkin flavored and all. Unfortuanltey they are a fire waiting to happen and I'm not risking it. But they look super awesome regardless of the no lighting policy :).

Finished Product:

Materials:
  • 2 tall glasses
  • 2 candles that fit in the glasses
  • spider web
  • a bag of plastic creepy crawlys (I found a bag that included spiders, centipedes, roaches , skulls and other weird bugs)
  • a bag of plastic skeletons (I cut off the ligaments and heads)
  • a bag of goggly eyes
  • hot glue gun
Step 1: Drop your candle in the vase and put a small layer of spider web around the base of the candle

Step 2: Add your creepy crawlys, any way you choose.

Step 3: Hot glue the eyes in a strip across the top of the glasess.


How easy was that?
