Paint candlestick and base, and dry completely.

Using wood glue, attach the round wooden base to the bottom of the candlestick, and the bird's nest to the top. Place a book or other sturdy item on top of the nest to press the pieces together. Dry overnight.
-
Using the metal jump rings, attach teardrop crystal beads around the bottom of the nest (or accessorize as desired).
-
Fill nest with décor items, such as eggs, a small bird or a favorite collectible.

To use outdoors: coat candlestick and base with wood sealant after painting, and protect from rain as much as possible.
