Red and Green Christmas Papercraft Candles in 3D

Red and green Christmas candle duo, festive magic in 3D papercraft

Picture the scene. The Christmas tree sparkles, fairy lights cast a soft glow, and on the sideboard, two Christmas candles catch the eye. One deep red, the other fir green. Their faceted yellow flames seem to shimmer, frozen in a warm and cozy moment. These 3D papercraft candles bring the spirit of Christmas into volume—no flame, no wax, but plenty of character.

Assembly quickly becomes a ritual. A few precise folds, a touch of glue, and the cylinders take shape. The base comes together, the flame is added, and the candle is ready to join your décor. In under an hour, the duo is complete, ready to light up the room in its own way. An accessible creative activity, perfect to share before the holidays or during a calm afternoon.

Two iconic colors, two distinct models

This duo includes two independent models. The red candle uses 1 red page and 1 yellow page for the flame. The green candle follows the same principle, with 1 green page and 1 yellow page. In total, you will need 4 A4 pages (recommended paper ≥ 160 gsm). Each candle measures 20 × 5.9 × 5.9 cm once assembled.

Why they fit so easily into your décor

• Red and green instantly evoke Christmas, without any effort.
• The 3D design adds depth and catches the ambient light.
• With no real flame, they are perfect around children or pets.
• They can be reused year after year, staying intact and decorative.

Decor ideas and atmospheres

Placed on an entryway console, dining room sideboard or a shelf near the tree, these candles become a strong visual anchor. Set them on either side of a centerpiece, pair them with fir branches, gold accents or small paper houses. By playing with height, the effect becomes instantly warmer, almost theatrical.

This model is part of our Christmas papercraft 3D collection, designed to create striking interiors with minimal materials and maximum impact.
