All you need are some glass bottles/jars/candle holders, whatever you'd like. I had an empty wine bottle and I went to the dollar store to get a couple of candle holders. I also bought some rubber bands (for some reason I didn't have any?) and some spray paint. I've seen this project done with "frost" spray paint- which might look kind of nice. However, I couldn't find that variety, so I ended up getting a satin metallic paint in "nickel." I like the way mine turned out, you could do whatever colors you'd like :)
1. Start putting rubber bands around your glass however you'd like.
2. Then paint! I'm not so great with spray paint... I get drip marks and probably don't apply it so evenly- but hey, we can't all be great at everything, right? (I'm only kidding...) I let the first coat dry 5-10 minutes and then let the final coat dry for a couple hours.
After two coats of paint and dry! |
3. Then remove the rubber bands and you'll be set!
A candle in these guys looks really nice (you can't tell that well from the pic) |
