Fall Filled Candle Holders
The Pastel Jezebel blog calls this the “Easiest Fall Centerpiece Ever,” and we’d be hard-pressed to argue that point.

There are no rules on how to fill them – experiment until you get a look that you like.

This easy-to-make box will look great on your table and have guests wondering where you bought it (and how much you had to spend on it)! Plus, with the easy-to-swap-out chalkboard labels, you can use this year-round for various occasions. All you need to make this gorgeous centerpiece is a wood box from your local craft store, paint, rectangle wood plaques, and whatever décor items you want to use inside the box (candles, fall garland, pumpkins, etc.). Ready to make one for your table? Full instructions can be found here.
