From drift wood to tea light holder in 10 minutes flat

This summer, on the beach, I found a nice piece of drift wood that I brought home with me.


I let it dry for a few months and yesterday I transformed it in a tea light holder in just a few minutes.

I started out be positioning some tea lights on the wood to see what would look nice. I marked the location of the tea lights on the log and took it outside.



Once outside, I mounted a hole saw on my hand drill and carefully started to drill out the marked locations. I made sure I was not drilling whole the way through.  After this, I cleaned up the holes with a small chissel.




So after 10 minutes of work I had a nice present for my wife. :-)
