How to Make a Hurricane Candle Holder

Supplies needed:

• glass taper candle holder
• glass vase
• any type of glue that will bond to glass

Directions:

Squeeze some glue around the top edge of the candle holder and set the glass vase on top of the glass candle holder. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the 2 to bond.

Glass vases come in many shapes and sizes that can be used. You can find these items at any discount or dollar store.

You can also use a gold or silver candle holder instead of a glass candle holder which will add even more elegance.

Grouping several home made hurricanes of different heights and shapes is a great way to add visual interest to a beautiful table centerpiece.

To get the professional look, simply add faux snow, sugar or epsom salt inside the glass vase to give the look of snow.

Then add your candle. You can also add small Christmas decorations, ornaments, or berries to make it more decorative.

Place your hurricane on a tray or charger, add faux snow, Christmas floral picks, ornaments, jingle bells, etc around the hurricane for the festive look you are trying to achieve.

This year when you start decorating your home, try making these beautiful and inexpensive glass hurricanes that will add a touch of elegance to your home. Display them on your mantle, create a grouping as your table centerpiece, or use alone on your coffee table. However you choose to use them, hurricane candle holders are an easy and cheap way to deck your the halls this Christmas season.
