Vintage candle holder to give to mom

vintage candlestick

Hello everybody. Today I bring you another idea to give to mom this next mother's day.

A nice candle holder or vintage style candlestick, made by recycling tuna cans and giving it a lot of care to surprise mom. Besides a nice detail it is also a good way to recycle cans that we use.

In this tutorial I show you two models that I have made to inspire you.

Materials I used to make the vintage candle holders

  • Empty tuna cans.
  • Pliers.
  • Ribbons
  • Strong glue.
  • Charms and decorations.
  • Colored linen threads.

Procedure

To begin what we have to do is wash and dry the cans well to eliminate all the odors and residues that they could have. Then with pliers I flattened the inner edge of the can to avoid accidents.

For the first candlestick, what I did was use a cream-colored vintage-style ribbon. I put glue all over the edge and I was gluing the tape to complete the circumference. Same for the other edge. I let the tape dry and I made sure it was well adhered.

Then I took dry green rustic linen yarn to decorate the space that was left between the two ribbons. What I did was spend several metallic balls aged bronze color on the thread and then give several laps around the can and finish with a knot. And to finish I added a heart-shaped charm with an inscription that says: "Made with love" (made with love).

For the second vintage candle holder that I made, I used a ribbon the same as the previous one but in green. And the procedure is the same. First we put glue and glue the tape on one edge then on the other and finally we decorate.

To decorate the second candlestick I used a rustic linen thread in a pink tone. I took several strands and in them I put some charms in aged bronze color and I made a fairly large knot in which I hung a charm also with an inscription.

I hope you liked and served this tutorial and that you put it into practice for this Mother's Day.
