9. Twig & Burlap Autumn Candle Lanterns
Flickering candlelight creates an immediate sense of warmth in cooler weather. Standard glass cylinder vases can be turned into glowing woodland lanterns with just natural twigs or woven burlap.
- Supplies: Glass cylinder candle holders, straight dry twigs from the yard, burlap ribbon or cane webbing, LED pillar candles, hot glue.
- How to Make: Measure and cut real twigs to the exact height of the glass cylinder. Hot glue the twigs vertically around the glass vase, wrapping tightly side-by-side until the glass is enclosed. Wrap a band of jute twine or frayed burlap around the center of the cylinder and tie it into a simple knot. Place a battery-operated flickering pillar candle inside for a soft, woodsy glow.
