I'm always happy when I discover a new use for something I already have in my tabletop or bake-ware collection. The above tea light candle holders are actually mini brioche tins that I use when baking. They look beautiful arranged down the center of a table, or when paired with mercury glass. One word of caution, the tins can get hot so place a removable piece of cut felt on the bottom and inside of the tin to protect your furniture and be sure your tea light is in it's own plastic or metal container. I've also used the brioche tins on dinner plates to hold dipping sauces, and on the serving table to hold salt. What items have you discovered other creative uses for?
