Luxury candle holders look like a piece of art and can cost you a pretty penny — anywhere from $45 to $100 or more for a good set. However, it’s possible to get a set of luxury candle holders without the big expense. A trip to the Dollar Tree, a little creative know-how, and about 24 hours are all that separates you from fashioning stylish candle holders that’ll cost you only about $25, give or take. To make gorgeous tall floor candle holders, you’ll need some Dollar Tree supplies: seven 4-inch tapered glass candle holders, plus five decorative succulent plant pots, two flat mirrored candle holders, and two flared top candle vases, like the Harlow vases. 

However, you have some flexibility here in terms of the base materials you use to make these gorgeous elevated candle holders. For example, stoneware pillar candle pedestals could be used in the place of the bottom tapered glass candle holders. This would create a base layer for the candle holder that looks slightly different from the other candle holders on the base, but would still be decorative. A sparkle is achieved by attaching some diamond wrap and silver mesh. And all of this gets fastened together with the help of both E6000 adhesive and some hot glue and a glue gun.

This home décor DIY requires you to glue the succulent vases on top of the tapered glass candle holders to eventually create two separate candle holders. One will be constructed of three succulent vases and four tapered glass candle holders. The other one is shorter. Its body consists of three tapered candle holders and two succulent vases. These stand on top of flat mirrored candle holders, which are used as a base to make the candle holders sturdier, and are topped with flared glass candle vases.

Glue the vases and the tapered candle holders together with E6000. A layer of Rust-Oleum gloss white spray paint then gives the candlestick set a unified color. The diamond bling wrap and diamond flower-shaped mesh are attached to the DIY project, including the candle vase at the top, with hot glue after the paint dries. You’re not stuck with white paint on this. If you’re enamored with trendy 2025 colors like butter yellow or crisp blue cotton, go with those. The DIY should fit your personal decorative style.

Finally, it’s possible to mix this up even more. Replace the top flared candle vase with some patterned iridescent candle holders to add subtle pops of color to the top of the candle holders. If you go with this option, you won’t need to wrap the top vase with a layer of the diamond mesh wrap. Additionally, Special Moments black decorative circle mirrors could replace the mirrored candle holders. This would be a nice touch if you decorate your home with mirrors.
