Candle cluster
been working on mine today/yesterday, think I'm making good progress. It's good to see i'm not the only one working on these with only 12 days left before halloween!!
They look great! Luv the cluster look.
Did you spray yellow paint in the areas where the flames would 'reflect'? That's genious!

Oh GREAT!!! I was going to wait til next year to start mine but I guess it will be a late night tonight. Now I have to have some. These look great.
These look great! Did you stuff something down the tube to keep the "candle" from falling down in?
I like them too but I think since the candle body is black I would have sprayed the plastic covers of the tea lights too.
I would take those tea lights put masking tape around the flame and spray paint them black too! Otherwise that is friggin awesome!
I've used a glue gun for fake candle wax on a smaller candelabra I made. Looks almost exactly like real candle wax, and sort of drips like it too. Very easy to get the effect you're looking for.
There look great! Did you put anything inside the tubes to help weight them down and stand up better?
I just stuffed them with crumpled up newspaper. They are all glued together, then to a silver platter (dollar Tree).
Those look great! I really like the height, looks very dramatic. I made a candle cluster a couple years back using PVC and that very same DT platter. I rolled up some cardboard and stuffed it into the PVC pipe to have something for the tea light to rest on.
