Step-by-step candlestick manufacturing process
As a basis for decorative candlesticks made of wood, you can use any log (for example, from oak or acacia) of suitable diameter. We cut the workpiece into several parts - depending on how many candlesticks you want to make.
Candlesticks made of logs can be made the same or different in height (this is at your discretion). Next, you need to make markings and drill a shallow hole in the center for the diameter and height of the candle. To do this, you can take the cutter or use a crown.
After this, the edges and surface of the wooden candlestick are well treated with sandpaper. To give products a greater aesthetics, their outer part can be covered with a layer of varnish or simply soaked with mineral oil with additives (for example, with wax).

Such decorative candlesticks made by hand from ordinary logs are simple, but at the same time they look very original and attractive. They are lightweight and compact, and will last you for many years.
