DIY wood slab candle holders
Vintage KC Magazine challenged me and some other local Kansas City creatives to create something from a simple wood slab (the end results are featured in the latest issue of the magazine.
I had been wanting to create some simple wood slab candle holders for quite some time, so my idea came to me pretty quickly. I had no idea it would be as quick and easy as it was.
You will need:
1. Round wood slab
2. Tea light candles
3. A drill with 1.5″ a spade bit (the bit was only around $5 from Home Depot)
To get started we drilled five evenly spaced holes into the wood slab.
Note: We definitely don’t recommend the “between your feet method” while drilling – not safe. We suggest using vices if you have them.
It only took five minutes to drill all the holes. You’ll just want to make sure they fit a tea light candle.
And here are the results:
These are awesome. We don't have a lot of wood like that around here but I might steal some from my parents next time I visit their house.
Thanks Rachel!! Once you start these wood projects it kinda becomes addicting. 🙂
