Dollar Store Candle Centerpiece

I was stalking the aisles of my local Dollar Tree recently when inspiration struck.  I found all of the items to create this candle centerpiece within the store.  A grand total of $4!  Plus this one is super easy and will only take you a few minutes.

The supplies I purchased included a Zen Garden, 2 sets of glass votives, and some bamboo trivets.

The trivets cut remarkably easy with scissors.  I cut off the "binding" edge and then cut to the height of my candles.

Then just cut off that binding on both sides, wrap around your votives, and secure with a little hot glue.

Continue until you have all 4 candles complete.  Drop the candles in the base for your Zen Garden.  You can ditch the rest of the garden or find other uses for it.  I was just after the gorgeous black base.

Then just display your creation.  See I told you it was super easy!

What have you found at the Dollar Tree lately?  Am I the only one that stalks stores looking for crafty inspiration?

I'm a Dollar Tree stalker, too! You never know what might inspire you there. Love your creation!

I love what you have done. Very nice idea. I too love the dollar store. Whenever I think craft, my first thought is, does the dollar store have anything.

It's a great idea. Good on you for thinking of it! I think I'll have to copy this. I would like some for myself. Stop by sometime, won't you?
