Fill your pegboard with beads of the colour you want. You can basically use any pegboard you like, but I find the square and star to be the best ones.

The star diagram is representative of a large-sized pegboard, but you can also use the small one.

Iron your beads extra well on both sides. Start with one side, flip and iron the other side, then go back and iron the first side again.

Now take your bead plate and place it on the bottom of your glass, making sure to bend the sides thoroughly around the glass.

Pour cold water over your bead plate while still holding it around the bottom of your glass. When the bead plate cools down it becomes solid, and you can take it from the water and dry it off.

If you do not wish to add glitter, your candle holder is now ready for use.

Use a paintbrush to apply the glue onto your candle holder, make sure to apply a good layer all over and onto the corners as well.

Now, pour a generous amount of the glitter all over your candle holder. Then pour the glitter from the candle holder and gently tap off the excess. If you do this on a piece of paper, you can pour the excess glitter back into the jar to use another time.

Allow the candle holder to dry and then add your electric candlelight.
