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.

We used black ribbon to coordinate with our buffalo plaid table cloth but you could certainly use red , green or any other Christmas ribbon.

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
