Candles are cool. They add light and mood to a room and are especially great if they're made from natural, non-toxic materials like soy, vegetable, or bees wax, instead of petroleum. If your candle collection is growing and you're looking for chic ways to house them around your home, try making this cool candle holder from old CDs and a used wine bottle. It's an easy project that will leave everyone asking you where they can buy theirs.


How to make a cool candle holder from old CDs and a wine bottle:


1. Choose several CDs. Any kind will do.

2. Turn your cds over and assemble them together. There should be one in the center and several others layered around it. Use eco-friendly glue to fasten the cds together in this form.

3. Paint the cds and a wine bottle all the same color and then use eco-friendly glue to adhere the cd formation to the top of the wine bottle. Add tea lights and enjoy!
