It’s no secret that I’m a fan of bling, sparkle and glitz, so it should be no surprise when I show what I did to a $1 candle holder from the Dollar Tree using up some old scrapbook supplies that I found. Take a look at my blingy candle holder.
As I was sorting through my craft supplies, I found more sheets of those self-adhesive gems. I have no idea why I had so many! I think a lot of them were from scrapbook kits that I had gotten over the years, and others were from the wedding projects that I made. I’m just happy that I found another use for them! I also used them recently to glam up a Dollar Tree pumpkin!
It was really simple to do. It just take a little bit of time to stick the gems onto the candle holder. I didn’t have a plan or a pattern. I just started sticking them on to the candle holder, using what I had and just eye-balling the placement of the gems. But you could get precise and do some sort of pattern, but like I’ve said before, I’m a lazy crafter!
Since my dishes are a plain ivory color, this candle holder adds just the right amount of color and sparkle to my table setting! I love it! I have to get back to the Dollar Tree for more!
What have you blinged lately? I’d love to know!

That candle holder looks gorgeous! I love how it goes with your other dishes. Just a little glamour, but still casual enough. 🙂 Love it!
That came out really pretty! I love ideas like this I could have never thought of on my own. And it looks safe and easy enough for my crafty little girl to help me with!
Your candle holder came out great! It looks like something I’d have to have from Pier 1! I think I could maybe do something like this too!
lol what a great idea, why didn’t I think of that. That would be a great item for kids to make as presents. Pinning too.
Really pretty! It gives your candles a whole new look. And there are so many different ways to go with colors, patterns, etc.

I’m in the same boat as you! I have tons of these adhesive gems! Wonder if I can make something cool too!
What a great idea, who doesn’t like a little “bling bling” in their life! It’s happiness!
First off, I love this votive holder! Second off, I love the Dollar Tree! You created such a beautiful candle holder. It will last you for many years and will be used over and over I am sure.

That’s so pretty, especially for not having a pattern! Love the colors.
Something else I can add to my holiday fare! I absolutely love this. Also something I can help my nieces and nephews do and wrap up a set of four to give to parents as a Christmas gift. I love this, it’s an awesome DIY.
