Tired of those old boring mason jars lying around in your kitchen?
You can up-cycle them to these wonderful candle holders by using this simple DIY!
All you need is-
- old mason jar/cookie jar/any glass vase
-paper
-glue
-scissors
-gold spray paint (I love gold, but you can use anything really)
-black glass painting liner tube
- candle (thick)
Directions:
-Clean the jar with some soap and water. Dry completely.
-Cut out two heart shapes from paper (same size and shape) proportionate to the jar.
-Glue this paper hearts to the front and back of the jar so that you cannot see the other heart from the front of the jar. Use a tacky glue just to stick the edges of the hearts so that the paint does not bleed through the edges.
- Now use your favorite spray paint and spray all over the mason jar (protect your eyes and wear a nasal mask).
- After it dries out, peel out the paper hearts carefully.
- Line the heart shape with glass liner and draw small spirals all over the heart.
and Voila! You have a pretty candle holder!
I just stuck to a simple design, but you can create anything you like with different colors, different shapes etc!
