Want to decorate your home but don't have the time or special skills? Then this way to create an original candlestick is perfect for you!
In every home you can find scraps of fabric, remnants of multi-colored threads, lace trimmings, which can be easily turned into a real decoration of a future candlestick. Well, if you have never sewn, then just go to the store for needlewomen, there you can easily find lace of any width and any color, delicate guipure, multi-colored fabrics. Very little of them will be needed for the future candlestick.
So, to create a candlestick from a glass and fabric, you will need the glass itself (it is best to choose a cylindrical shape made of plain glass), fabric or lace, glue (for example, "Moment Crystal" or superglue is suitable).
Elegant candlestick with lace
Wrap the glass with a piece of lace, cut the lace with a small margin and secure it to the cut with transparent glue. To prevent the lace from slipping, drop glue under its dense areas. Now you can put any small candle in it and use it as intended.
Bright candlestick with satin decor
The process of doing the work is similar to that described above, but it is worth sticking a dense tape along the upper and lower edges of the glass to mask the cut of the fabric. Also, the decor can be supplemented with lace, ribbon …
Winter candlestick made of warm jersey
The work is again similar, but a more successful, in my opinion, option is possible. Cut off a piece of the sleeve from the old sweater and simply insert a glass into it. Turn the cut from the bottom inward or outward, position the cuff on top. The fabric can also be secured with glue strips at the bottom and top.
Vintage candlestick made from the remains of decorative materials
Such an original candlestick will turn out if you wind a little rope in the middle of the glass, and glue a strip of burlap, a piece of narrow lace, and linen flowers on top. Instead of flowers, it is quite possible to fix artificial pearls, beads.
