Creative Construction

Being student-led means our learners have agency and autonomy over their own education. It also means they are fully invested when they choose to pursue a project. Case in point are some of the recent design and technology projects being undertaken by students at Cannamore. We wanted to highlight one in particular – a beautiful copper candelabra, made from scratch.

The term candelabra comes from the Latin word candelabrum, which means a candle-tree. This type of candlestick gets its name for the very reason that the candle stand comes with many branches or arms to hold multiple candles, and often resembles a tree. A candelabra was an important household item during days of old – we think this one will be just as important!
