Prep

I started with these curvy chair legs. Chairs with this kind of leg are easy to find on craigslist or thrift stores for an inexpensive price. I cleaned the legs with water and vinegar mixture and then cut them into different sizes.

Assembling the Candle Holder

To assemble the candle holder, I used 4x4 fence caps and 4" plant saucers and glued them up with contact cement glue.

Prime and Paint

Since we are painting wood, I used a stain-blocking primer and then painted it with White Mineral Paint.

Decorating the Candle Ring

After priming and painting, I used clear plastic container tops as the candle rings.

To decorate the candle ring, I used dollar store florals along with some real rose buds and greenery. I glued them with my glue gun.
