Boho Bedroom Decor Idea // DIY Vinyl Boho Candleholders

The following post is sponsored by Cricut

Let’s talk about boho bedroom decor today! In the process of planning decor ideas for our home, I couldn’t really pinpoint my exact decor style. As much as I love true midcentury design, I discovered I was often attracted to eclectic and bohemian decor styles too! Now I’m learning to infuse midcentury, boho and eclectic vintage decor into my home to make it really feel like ME (Oh, and a little industrial-meets-midcentury for Andrew). To bring a little boho into the bedroom, I made this set of DIY boho candleholders with Cricut vinyl! My Cricut Explore Air 2 cut out all the tiny details of my boho-inspired patterns, and all I did was stick it together. These easy DIY boho candles are also CHEAP to make! Keep reading for the full tutorial and a quick video.

My take on this boho bedroom decor idea is heavily inspired by Moroccan designs with the use of jewel toned Cricut Vinyl. For even more boho candleholder designs, I recommend searching “patterns” in Cricut Design Space. There’s so many to choose from! While I chose very intricate designs, there are some (like the pink design) that are simpler. Keep in mind these designs take a long time to cut! The very intricate design of the yellow candleholder took about an hour. Luckily you can find other things to keep you busy while the Cricut works!

These vinyl boho candleholders found a home on my bedside table. There’s something about candles that is so relaxing! I just want to cuddle under the covers with a good book…minus the cuddle part because it’s 100 degrees here.

How to make boho-inspired candleholders

Here’s how to make your own boho candleholders with ANY color or type of Cricut vinyl! Please keep in mind these are intricate designs, so they must be cut with a machine. However, you can use any Cricut machine, such as the Cricut Maker or Cricut Joy, to cut your designs.

supplies for updating candleholders with cricut vinyl

Supplies:

  • Template in Cricut Design Space
  • Cricut Pearl Metallic Vinyl, 3-4 colors (I used Maize, Dew Green and Party Pink)
  • Glass jars, various sizes
  • Cricut Standard Grip Mat
  • Cricut Transfer Tape
  • Scissors
  • Cricut Explore Air 2 (or Maker/Joy)
  • Weeding tool
  • Smoothing tool
  • Candles to fit the boho candleholders

Step 1: Visit Cricut Design Space and choose the template above or create your own. Try searching “patterns” to choose your favorites! Resize according to each candleholder.

Note, I used a measuring tape to wrap around each glass jar to determine the length of my design.

Step. 2: Then click “Make It” when you’re ready to cut. Apply the first color of vinyl to a Standard Grip Mat with the white side of the vinyl DOWN.

HOW TO CUT INTRICATE PATTERNS WITH CRICUT

Step 3: Then check that you are set to “Vinyl” or “Vinyl+.” Because the designs are so intricate, I recommend “Vinyl+.” I also like to use a Deep Cut Blade for this purpose, but it isn’t necessary.

Step 4: Load your mat into the machine. Then click the flashing start button. Watch it go! Like I said, it might take a while for intricate Cricut designs.

Step 5: Once done, unload the mat. Then cut out the cut section from the rest of your material. Carefully peel away the border and discard.

Step 6: Then gently peel back the design outline. You may need to use the weeding tool to remove tiny pieces that get caught in the design for your boho candleholders. Just take your time here.

Step 7: Finally, carefully transfer the design to wrap around your glass jar candleholder. Smooth with your hands or a smoothing tool.

Note, for designs that don’t have a border (like the pink one), apply transfer tape over the weeded design. Then peel it away in one go and smooth onto your candleholder.

Add in your favorite faux or real candles to enjoy! I love how they look when they’re all grouped together. This is one of those projects that makes me SO impressed with what my Cricut can do. Be sure to check out the archives for even more ways to craft with Cricut!

WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk abou WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk about the new pins in the shop...but they SOLD OUT in 12 hours instead πŸ˜­πŸ™ Andrew and I are so overwhelmed with the love of the #FIPWarriors community. Thank you to anyone who's purchased a pin to support Milo's treatment! We're so close to the end now! One more batch of pins coming up soon 😽
What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas decorations?! 😭 Half our neighbors already took down their Christmas lights, so I guess the only goal is to not be the LAST one with lights up. How long do you keep up your decorations?
Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holi Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holiday card before it's a week til Christmas, so we can actually send one πŸ€ͺ When we get Christmas cards, I always feel like a little kid getting mail again! Do you send a holiday card??⁠
⁠
(Grab this DIY card holder in the blog archives! πŸ‘‰)
More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHO More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHOCKED to see Milo's pins sell out so quickly. We made 50 with the expectation that we wouldn't sell very many, but I just put in an order for more inventory! 😭⁠
⁠
This time we'll be selling black and white cat "FIP Warrior" pins to help raise money for Milo's treatment. Stay tuned - a pre-sale is coming! Pins will ship again in early January. In the meantime, there's plenty of other products available in the shop! (Visit my @etsy via the link in my bio)
NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your su NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your support of Milo while he goes through FIP treatment! I designed a new enamel pin to help us raise the funds to pay for Milo's treatment...THEN we sold almost all of the pins in just in a few hours! I'm so thankful and in shock of the generosity of our FIP community 😭⁠
⁠
There are a few left and more on the way, so you can SHOP NOW on @etsy and here on IG!! If you want a pin and they are sold out, please tag yourself below! Visit the link in my bio to purchase πŸ›β

"FIP Warrior" is the name we give to cats fighting FIP and the humans who help them, bringing awareness to the disease and possible treatments. Our Warrior Milo is almost halfway through his treatment and we couldn't be more grateful to see him getting better! Every purchase from my shop helps us to pay for his expensive treatments and is so, so appreciated πŸ™πŸΌ
🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since 🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since my last post (oops!) but I had to fit in my one obligatory fall photo before I dive straight into Christmas! If you caught my Stories recently, you may have already seen why I've been so absent...⁠
⁠
Last month, our sweet Milo was diagnosed with a disease called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). It's very serious and has required our full attention to give him daily injections that should help him recover. The treatment is 84+ days long and has taken a huge emotional toll on us. You can learn more about Milo's FIP story in my profile Highlights!⁠
⁠
Long story short: I've been too emotionally drained from Milo's treatment, my regular work and the crazy world around us to even think about social media 😣 I truly don't know how you fellow creators do it! Hopefully the cheerfulness of Christmastime gives me the urge to create again! (πŸ“Έ cookies made for a project with @spectrumorganic)
