Here's a unique way to use cups and saucers from tea sets that have broken or missing pieces. You could also purchase vintage cups and saucers and create these candle holders to give as gifts. The one pictured is from a mini tea set.
Approximate Time: 5 minutes
Invert tea cup and glue bottom of saucer to bottom of cup. Place votive in center of saucer.

What kind of glue is best, a glue for ceramics and porcelaine?
What a fabulous idea! These are really cute, I'm sure that they make great gifts and I bet they would sell well at crafts fairs and such. They would be a cute fundraiser for your child's school too.
E6000 glue works very well, but I'm sure any glue made for porcelain or ceramics would work. Adorable baby bunny thriftmeg!
STACK TWO OR THREE SETS OF TEACUPS AND SAUCERS FOR A TEA PARTY; PLACE SMALL MUFFINS, ETC. ON THEM; IT MAKES A PRETTY, UNUSUAL PRESENTATION.
what a clever idea. I have made candles in cups but never thought to use one like this to set my candles on
thank you so much for this idea
