How to Make Jack-o’-Lantern Clay Candleholder for Halloween
Divide and make three balls from air-dry clay.
Give them pumpkin shapes using threads or skewers.
Then carve out a big chunk from the one that’ll go on top. This is where you will place a candle. You size the candleholder depending on how big you want it to be.
Then stack the three pumpkin balls on top of each other and make sure to hold them in place with a piece of craft wire.
Next, paint everything orange with a bit of fall shades.
Now, all that’s left to do is to paint Jack-o’-lantern faces on them.
Let everything dry up and display your candles in this cute handmade candleholder.
