What you will need to make a crackle glass candle holder:
We found these little crackle glass candle holders at our local Dollar Tree. But we only found four of them at the time and we are on the lookout for more. We had to dig to the back of the shelves in the candle votive section of Dollar Tree to find them. So if you are checking your local store, be sure and search all the shelves for them.
But if you don’t find the crackle dollar tree candle holder then they do have several other beautiful glass pieces you could exchange. We found this silver tinted one and the gold tinted one in the background that will make elegant candle holders.
Supplies needed to make these candle holders:
- 2 candle stick holders (Dollar Tree)
- 2 Crackle candle holders (Dollar Tree)
- Paint Brush
- Waverly White Chalk Paint
- E6000 glue
How to Make this Dollar Tree Pedestal Candle Holder:
Paint both candlesticks with Waverly® White Chalk Paint and allow to dry.
Then apply a second coat of paint and allow the candlesticks to completely dry overnight.
To attach the crackle glass candle holder to the pedestals you will need e6000 glue. It’s transparent and bonds to glass, wood, plastics, tin, metal, ceramic, cement, rubber, vinyl, leather, fabric
Apply a line of the glue to the top of one of the candle sticks.
Place one of the crackle candle holders onto the candle stick. Repeat with second crackle glass candle holder and allow both to set at least 24 hours.
Now either add a battery operated candle or a small votive candle. And decorate your dollar tree pedestal candle holders with greenery or ribbons to match your decor or use a holiday decor. And this crackle glass candle holder makes one oof the most elegant candle holders don’t you think?
Christmas tea light Holders:
You could take these simple crackle glass candle sticks and use them as Christmas tea light holders. Add a few sprigs of holly with those gorgeous red berries and tie with a ribbon.
We used black ribbon to coordinate with our buffalo plaid table cloth but you could certainly use red , green or any other Christmas ribbon.
Valentine’s Day Candle Holder:
If you are decorating for Valentine’s Day you might wish to tie a colorful ribbon, (we used red gingham) around the candle holder pedestal. Or you could use pink and red ribbons.
Now place a red battery operated candle in each of the candle holders. Or you could use a small red tea light to avoid mess cleanups in your crackle glass candleholder.

Hello, I haven't been able to find the crackle candle holders anywhere. They stopped selling them at our Dollar Tree about three years ago. Do they still sell them in your state? If so, where do you reside, if you don't mind me asking?
Thanks so much. You do a great job with them, and you have so many neat ideas. I was so mad when they took them away, as I decorated them, too, as butterfly holders, and they were my top sellers on Etsy.
Thanks for your time, Diane
