Warning!: Always exercise common sense when using candles and flammable objects! Never leave unattended or out of sight when burning. Place on a stable surface away from curtains, electronics, and other flammable objects. Make sure to always keep the area above the candle clear from any obstructions. And always keep an eye on candles when burning! For the safest bet use electronic “candles”. 

Update: Added new V2.1 files. Removed bottom cavity from V2 files for better, faster printing.

This festive Halloween candle holder is sure to send a shiver down your spine! Use on its own or pair it with my Pumpkin Tealight Holder. I would recommend using battery-powered tealights, especially with versions marked ‘V3’ as they tend to heat up and warp along the top. ‘V3’ versions have better light distribution while ‘V2’ models can withstand regular tealights, although exercise caution when using them with regular flame tealights and do not leave them unattended. 

I printed mine with 5% gyroid infill on the base of the model (up to 12.06mm) and 0% infill above that to allow the light through unobstructed. ‘V2’ models do not require supports, but I printed mine with a thin pillar just beneath the base. The eyes and mouth are designed to be printed without supports.

Happy Halloween!
