Doesn’t candlelight create a special atmosphere? It is so warm and endearing that you cannot miss Christmas.

Well, with a glass jar, a piece of black cardboard and a little bit of skill with scissors, you can make a beautiful candle holder full of Christmas spirit.

You dare? Well, follow the instructions that I give you below and don’t worry about the silhouette drawing, you have two different templates to download and cut out.

You can create your own landscape Or download the template that I have drawn and use it as a pattern to cut the cardboard. If you want to download my template in PDF format, you can do so by clicking here. There are two different drawings, in case you dare to make more than one candle holder.

We place a loop with a bell over the mouth of the jar, to cover the reliefs that serve to screw the lid.
