Hello everyone!
Today’s tutorial is a good
one!! It’s very adaptable and can be made as easy or difficult as you would
like. It is also a craft that can be made very quickly; I made mine in less
than half an hour!
First you need to gather all
the components you will need.
- A selection of jars large enough to hold candles or tea lights
- A selection of ribbons and lace
- Embellishments, this is very open to interpretation, whatever you have on hand can easily work
- Double sided tape or glue, I used tape to make it quicker!
- Scissors
I chose these three jars
which will all hold tea lights, the larger jar will also hold a slightly larger
candle.
Next choose the ribbon or
lace that you want to use on the jars. I decided to make the two smaller jars
the same. I cut a wide piece of ribbon for each jar to go around the outside
and lace to go around the top and make bows.
For the larger jar I used a
thin strip of double sided tape along the ribbon to attach a lace edge to it. I
attached this around the jar with tape and then put matching lace around the
top of the jar.
I was really pleased with
how they turned out. I hadn’t planned on making Christmassy jars but I found
the metal snowflakes and they were so pretty I just had to use them!!
These jars will be featured
in a blog post next week (complete with candles) so come back and see!!!
See you soon!
