This 10 inch long tea light centerpiece is easy to make and looks nice. I used Leopard wood and White Mahogany for contrast. For a project like this I think it's important to use nice hardwoods. You will need three tea light candles.
I used a 1 1/2" forstner bit to drill out the candle holes. Be accurate when cutting the slots for the legs. Make sure you get a good fit or it looks sloppy.
The tea light candles are 3/4" deep and I used 3/4" wood so I added a bottom piece so the candles have something to sit on. You can't see it in the picture but is included in the pattern.
