Gold color for fall is the best color to me; it looks sophisticated and classy. And this project is to upcycling my old mug into something classy gold. Yes, it’s a gold candle holder for fall decor! It’s super easy and quick to make. the key to get the nicest look for this mug – candle holder is to use an unique shape mug. My mug is unique to me because it has contoured shape, it has texture. And it looks great with painted in gold because the contour reflects the gold color more than a plain shape. That is why I save this old mug which I don’t use it anymore as it has some hairline cracks on the inner surface. Since, fall is coming, this gold candle holder would be a great addition to fall decoration collection. Scroll down to see how I made it!

Things To Prepare
You can always be creative with things that you have at home. You can replace things I use with things that you have at home. Find similar things that look like things that I use is the key. LIke for example, you can use a can mug instead of ceramic mug like mine. Anyway, let’s go straight to my list of supplies. Here is the list of supplies to make my DIY Candle Holder For Fall Decor :
- Old mug
- Gold spray paint
- Old bronze mini candle holder
- Silicone glue

How To Make
It is super easy to make, it’s only took some painting and gluing works. And the more unique your old mug is, the more beautiful your candle holder will be. To be clearer, let’s just go to the tutorial on how to make my DIY Candle Holder For Fall Decor :
1 .Clean the old mug and the old bronze mini candle holder; make sure it’s really clean for good painting result.
2 .Spray gold paint to the old mug evenly. Let it dry.
3 Glue the gold painted mug into the bronze mini candle holder by using silicone glue. Let it dry and firm. Done! as simple as that!

Now, the gold candle holder will be ready as my fall decoration. Put it together with other fall decorations to style your mantel, or dining table or even your kitchen table.
