October in Bedford brings those cozy evenings that just call for a little candlelight and warmth. If you’re looking for a simple, fragrant, and elegant craft to welcome fall, these DIY cinnamon stick candle holders are just the thing. They’re easy to make, smell divine, and can be enjoyed by both kids (with supervision!) and adults.
Supplies:
- Small glass candle holders or mason jars
- Cinnamon sticks (enough to wrap around each jar)
- Rubber bands or twine
- Hot glue (for adults) or craft glue (for kids)
- Small candles or LED tealights
- Optional: ribbon, raffia, or fall accents like dried orange slices or mini pinecones
Instructions:
- Wrap cinnamon sticks around the outside of your glass holder. For young children, use a rubber band to hold the sticks in place—they’ll love helping line them up! Adults can use hot glue for a sturdier finish.
- Once the sticks are secure, cover the rubber band with twine, raffia, or a pretty ribbon. Tie it in a bow for a rustic fall touch.
- Place your candle or LED tealight inside and enjoy the soft glow and lovely cinnamon scent.
These candle holders make charming centerpieces, gifts, or cozy accents for your Bedford home. With their warm glow and spicy aroma, they bring that perfect touch of fall comfort to any room. Happy crafting—may your home be filled with light, warmth, and the sweet scent of autumn!
