DIY Hardware Store Candlesticks

You can shop your local hardware store for most of these supplies and assemble a rustic-looking candle holder for your fall table in minutes…

Supplies: metal gutter strainer and terracotta pot that proportionally fit well together, a metal candle cup, two large washers, a carriage bolt, a small washer and a nut. Other than the candle cup, all of these items were available at our local hardware store.

Set the strainer on top of the upside-down pot, lining up the holes. Place a large washer and the candle cup in the strainer. Place a small washer inside the candle cup and then insert carriage bolt through all of the pieces. Holding the bolt firmly in place, turn the pot and strainer over and add a second large washer and a nut to the bolt. Screw tight to secure. Never leave candles unattended.
