8. Clay Candle Holders
Creating clay candle holders adds a handmade touch to your home decor. Materials required include air dry clay, rolling pin, a small glass or cup as a mold, craft knife, and sandpaper. Knead the clay until smooth and roll it out to your desired thickness. Wrap the clay around the mold to form the holder and smooth the edges.
Let the holder dry completely, which may take 24-48 hours depending on thickness. Once dry, you can paint or decorate it with patterns, textures, or designs. Optional: seal with varnish for added protection. Place a small tea light or LED candle inside. Clay candle holders are functional and decorative, allowing creativity with textures, shapes, and colors while making a useful object.
