I won some really boring plain tealight holders from a wedding party (I believe they were from Ikea) and decided I'd spruce them up with some scrap fabric I had!

I can definitely see this being an activity you can do with your children! (7+)

** Cardstock can be really pretty, but may be too think to work for this craft! The white edges may be seen after it's been glued.

You Will Need (4 things)

  • Paint Brush but I just used my fingers!
  • Mod Podge Acrylic Sealer Make sure it dries clear/matte
  • Scrap Fabric Or Paper
  • Glass Tealight Holders As many as you'd like to decorate!

Steps (5 steps, 120 minutes)

  1. 1

    Gather the fabric/paper you'd like to use and map out an idea in your mind of how you'd like your candle holders to look.

  2. 2

    Cut your fabric/paper into the pieces you'd like to use.

  3. 3

    Spread a thin layer of glue onto a small section of your candle holder.

    *If you cover the whole thing it'll dry before you get a chance to stick all the pieces on!

  4. 4

    Cover the entire outside of the candle holder and let dry for a few minutes.

  5. 5

    Lastly, spread another thin layer of glue over the fabric/paper to secure it completely.
