Charming Candle Centerpiece
A block of wood and a couple of hours of shop time are all you need to build this attractive candle centerpiece. It makes a great last-minute gift idea.
Handmade gifts are always a hit. Especially one as charming as this candle holder. Its beautiful but understated look makes it a good candidate for lots of spots around the house. It can easily make its home in the middle of a dining table, residing on a fireplace mantel, or lighting up a window. All this with the added benefit of using up those thick scraps in your lumber bin that you just can’t bear to toss in the fire pit.

Imperial Plans
The United States Customary System of Units (USCS or USC), more commonly referred to as the English or Imperial system, is the standard set of units for our plans. It uses inches and feet for measurement. This is the one you probably want if you are in the United States, and it is the one we have traditionally offered on this website.

Metric Plans
The International System of Units (SI), more commonly referred to as the metric system, is the alternative set of units that we have available for some of our plans. It uses millimeters, centimeters, and meters for measurement. This is the one you probably want if you are outside the United States. These plans are provided by our business partner, Australian Woodsmith, and are based on the original Woodsmith plan. However, dimensions and other elements of the plan may vary between the metric and standard versions. Be sure to double-check the plan before building.


Premium Plans
All of the information that you need to build our plans can be found in the standard plan. However, if you want even more granular detail to make your job easier, you should consider our premium plans. These come with additional shop diagrams that we drew when creating the prototypes. Shop drawings are not available for every plan.
