We don't have very many candle holders in our apartment, but we do have plenty of tall candles. Go figure. As long as I'm playing around with making a fruit bowl or lampshade I might as well continue with throwing records into the oven and reshaping them.
This time around there are no cuts to make. All you need is a record, an oven, some corks, a knife, and an apple.
The apple is very important.

Signing UpStep 1Cut Some Cork
Looking around my apartment for cylindrical forms that are the same width as a tapered candle, I found that corks are perfect.
When you find four good specimens, cut off a half-inch or so, this part is up to you. Cut one first to use as a guide for the size of the others. Corks can have angled or rounded ends and the cut helps to flatten out one side.

This idea has been bounced around for years, by the way.
