If you are thinking of making a candle chandelier, then you first have to decide how complicated you want it to be. Obviously the simplest chandeliers are much easier to make than the most elaborate ones. And it turns out that making a simple candle chandelier is actually quite easy. All you need is a few easy-to-find items. You can put them altogether very quickly for an impressive addition to your house. This article describes how you can make a simple chandelier without too much hassle.

Firstly, you will need to get the proper supplies. You will need common tools like a hammer and nails. You will also need to get two boards, perhaps made out of wood. The board should be the same size as each other. Of course if you want to make your chandelier look good you will need to have a paintbrush and paint. Other items you can add to your list are chains, hooks and wire.

Once you have everything you need, the next step is to put it all together. Firstly you should nail the boards together so they form a cross shape. At this stage you can apply paint to the boards, or some other finishing coating if you with. Next, hammer in the hooks equidistant on the boards and put the chains on the hooks.

Next, use your o-ring to bring all the chains to together between the o-ring and the hooks. Once you’ve done this, you can fasten some pillar candles onto the boards. And then you’re ready to put it up above your room! One inspiration is a designer named Daniel Hopper that made the chandelier art above. You can check out his site for more interesting crafts.

It really is that simple. Follow the instructions and you can’t go wrong. Once you have the hang of making a candle chandelier in a simpler form like this, you may want to try your hand at making a fancier one. There are many sources online available for helping you do this. Good luck and have fun!
