Abstract: A customizable candle holder whose design is controlled by a user is described. The components of the candle holder comprise a base, a pillar, and a holder block. The components are designed such that the base supports the insertion of either the pillar or the holder block, and such that the pillar supports the insertion of the holder block. Therefore, the candle holder can be uniquely designed by a user with the incorporation of components of different or alternative designs. Candle holders of the invention can also comprise decorative charms, which can be removably attached to the holder thereby allowing more design freedom to the user.
