I came across this project from Michael's. They are adorable and really easy to make. I changed their directions a little since I had items on hand that were almost the same as they have listed in their directions. Here is what I used:
-Glass Votive Candle Holder
-A Copy of a Photo (from a toner based printer)
- Modge Podge
- Sponge Foam Brush
Directions:
1. Make sure the votive holder is clean. Apply a thin coat of Modge Podge with a sponge foam brush to the outside of the votive holder.
2. Cut out your photo to fit the candle holder. Apply to the votive holder.
3. Let dry for about 15 minutes.
4. Apply 1-2 coats of Modge Podge over the entire outside of the votive holder including over the photo.
5. Let dry a few hours. Place a candle (I prefer a flameless one) inside the holder and enjoy!
All In All: Super easy & super cheap to make. These are great to give as gifts to grandparents or other loved ones. You can add embellishments to jazz them up a bit too. This project is even easy enough to have the kids help make them!
