Looking for some simple DIY fall decor that you can make in just a few minutes?! Look no further – these DIY pumpkin candle holders are so easy and adorable! So, so simple to make and super affordable since you can pick up mini pumpkins for pretty cheap. I grabbed mine at a little farm market/greenhouse down the road for about $1 each. In fact, I ended up buying quiteeee a few pumpkins and stacking them all over in every room of the house haha. My roommates were thrilled, I’m sure!
Once you have the pumpkins, it takes no time at all to whip these together. I have a bunch of different taper candles hanging around the house so I used some of those and I like how the mismatched candles go together. But if you don’t have any around, you can always grab some matching ones for cheap at the Dollar Store or I linked a few cute ones of different sizes down below.
If I had a good fireplace/mantle in my house you better believe that I would cover it with pumpkin candle holders and light them all up and sit and drink some tea in front of it. Full cozy mode over here right now!
Materials for DIY Pumpkin Candle Holders:
