Parts for a 4 Candle set
In principle, this will work although as D M notes (assuming a non-inverted build), the 1x1 bricks won't attach to the palm top correctly as they aren't long enough - a 1x1 round plate with hole on the bottom will help - either the same colour as the candle or as a part of the holder.
You might find that the candles are too close together for you as they would end up touching:

If you aren't worried about stability, by inverting the the 1x1 round bricks and resting the pin-holders upside down for a more &quot;used&quot; look, however the pin holders aren't secured:

Other options you might consider include using:

The very old 5x5 Propeller with 4 blades, very limited colour set
Plate Round 4x4 with hole
Two 1x3 plates stacked crossways, with 1x1 plates to provide additional support and conformity (as IvanSanchez suggests)
Plate, Modified 3x3 Cross, only available in a limited colour set, but available in at least black, brown and reddish brown (as Matthew Jensen suggests)
Axle Connector Hub with 4 bars and four Bar Holder with clip to hold inverted pin holders


The Haunted House set uses a Pearl Gold Technic Knob Cog in its chandelier, shown with the Candle element:
