Materials

  • Small glass votive or tealight holder (2-3 inches tall)
  • 10-12 Cinnamon sticks (roughly the height of your glass)
  • Hot glue gun or strong craft glue
  • Twine, ribbon, or jute string (12-15 inches)
  • Tealight or small candle

Instructions

  • Measure your cinnamon sticks to match the height of your glass votive. Then trim or break any that are too long to ensure a neat edge.
  • Apply a small line of glue along one side of each cinnamon stick and carefully press it against the outer surface of the glass holder. Continue gluing the sticks side by side until the glass is fully wrapped.
  • Once the glue is dry, wrap a piece of twine or ribbon around the center of the cinnamon sticks and tie it into a simple bow. This adds a decorative touch and helps secure everything in place.
  • Place a tealight or small candle inside the holder. Light it and watch as the soft glow enhances the rich brown tones of the cinnamon and fills the room with a warm, spicy scent.
  • Arrange your candle holders with pinecones, dried oranges, or acorns for an elegant seasonal display.
