‘Tis the Season to Get Creative: DIY Christmas Hacks Straight from Grandma’s Book

Candles are a lovely atmospheric touch around the holidays (or any other time, really). They give off a soft, soothing glow and emit just a slight bit of warmth. They can also be excellent to use as decorations. One safe and versatile way to display them is in a hurricane vase filled with some type of filler.

To prevent the filler from covering up your candle and causing a fire hazard, give your candle a little boost. Put a can inside the hurricane vase first, then place the candle on top of it. Once you add the filler, the can will be covered, and your candle will look very tall and impressive.
