DIY- Log Wood Tea Light Candle Holders

Log Wood Tea Light Candle Holders

Sharing a quick and easy DIY on how to make Log Wood Tea Light Candle Holders!!

I made these a few weeks ago with my Dad using some log wood we had left behind our shed that we used during the summer for our bonfires. These are super easy to make and you only need a few tools. All you need is the following:

1. Log wood at least 4" in diameter
2. Drill
3. 1 ½" wood boring drill bit
4. Saw- we used a miter saw, but if you don't have one a hand saw would work too
5. Tea light candles
6. Jute twine

We cut each holder three different sizes, but you can cut them to the size you like. Next, we drilled a hole for the tea light candle about ½" deep using the wood boring drill bit. For some added texture I tied jute twine in bows around the candle holders and voila your done!

I would have loved to make these using white birch wood, but I still love the way they turned out. Maybe next year I will have to get some and make more!

We also made these cute rustic tree ornaments with the leftover log pieces!

I stamped images and words on the ornaments, and then used a wood burner to burn the images into the logs. I just love the way these turned out!!
