Turn small pumpkins into Thanksgiving candle holders.

You will need:

  • Newspaper
  • Serrated Knife
  • A few smaller pumpkins (however many you desire)
  • A larger scoop or spoon
  • An equal number of candles

Directions

Scoop out as much of After spreading out your newspaper, cut a hole into your pumpkins that is just slightly smaller than the diameter of the candle.

Scoop out as much of the seeds as possible. If the hole is too small to get all of the seeds, cut another hole in the bottom of equal size and scoop more from the bottom. Rinse out your pumpkin once it is free of seeds and repeat this step for each of your pumpkins.

Once all of your pumpkins are carved out, place your candle inside of the hole. The candles should stick out about 2 inches or more. If you find them to be too short, place a votive holder upside down inside of the pumpkin and stand the candle on top of it. This should allow more of your candle to stick out from the pumpkin.

Place your new candle holders as centrepieces on your table, on your fireplace mantle, or even on the window sill especially if you have a nice deep bay window.
