How to make a candle holder out of cement

A candle holder in the form of two halves of a Heart will be a great gift for Valentine’s Day and wedding anniversary.
So, to make a candle holder we will need the following materials:
– cement
– sand
– boxes (from dense cardboard, different in height, but equal in width and the depth of the boxes should also coincide).
– foam plastic
– wine cork
– glue gun
– universal varnish
– box cutter
-sandpaper
– rubberized mat
– red acrylic paint
– brush
– two tall candles (preferably red)
– marker

Step 1
Cut out two halves of the heart from foam. Glue each half into each box. In the top of the box make a hole and insert a wine cork into it. Grease the whole mold with oil.

Step 2
Mix the cement mortar. Pour the mortar into the mold and leave it to harden for 24 hours.

Step 3
After hardening, remove the product from the mold. Remove the foam heart halves and wine corks.
Scrape off any irregularities with sandpaper. Coat the product with universal varnish.
