Stone Wooden Candle Stand

Stone Wooden Candle Stand

Constructing projects from wood is a great way of making beautiful objects that will last a very long time. In order to do that, you’ll most likely have to put together pieces of wood to complete your project. 

Here is a step by step guide to make a beautiful but classy Stone Wooden Candle Stand.

 For this DIY you'll need:

Wood x 2pcs.
Stones   
Hammer
Nails
Hot Glue Gun and Hot Glue
Spray Paint (White, Black, Golden, Silver)   

First sand two wooden pieces properly. For this project I used a 8"/4" wooden piece and 4"/4" wooden piece.

 

 Then join two pieces together by placing the long piece on top of the square piece using hot glue gun.

After applying hot glue leave it until it dries. Then take a piece of nail and place it behind the square piece to make it strong enough to hang.

This is a quick and easy way to join two boards at right angles. However, because the end grain of one board is mating with the long grain of the other, glue will not hold these boards together very well at all. Usually these joints are reinforced with screws or nails.

 
There is one characteristic of wood that should be kept in mind when considering joinery options, and that is that wood is made of fibers running side by side. Gluing up wood so that the sides of the fibers (the long grain) are next to each other results in a strong glue joint, but gluing the ends of the fibers (the end grain) will be a very weak joint.

After joining the wooden pieces together it should look like this.

Next, Take some stones and place them as you want. When you are ready and happy the way you placed your stones put hot glue under each of them. I like to use round stones but I couldn't find them nearby so I used rustic sharp edge stones.

 After fixing all the stones onto the wooden piece spray your favourite colour or preferable colour. I used white because it goes with the decor of my living room.

 There are different types of spray paint. So, you can choose whatever colour you like.

That's it. You're Done. In a very little amount of time you have made a classy yet beautiful table top candle stand all by yourself. 

Just play with your own ideas to improvise this simple DIY to make your home look more nice and sophisticated with a touch of love.

Don't forget to remember... If you're not Smiling... you're doing it Wrong!!!
