Decoupage Candle Holders
Supplies: glass candle holders colored tissue paper and magazine cutouts bowl of water and glue mixed together scissors
First you want to make sure you have all your cutouts and tissue paper. You can cut different shapes and such from the tissue paper and use that as a background color if you like. You could use little pictures from magazines, but they wont be see-through like the tissue paper. With tissue paper, you could creat a layered effect with diffent colors layed over each other. For example, using little squares of blue and red tissue paper would make purple , so your holder would have blue, red and purple in it. Whatever you decide to use, make sure you have enough of it.
Then start taking the paper, dip it in the glue and water mixture and place it on the candle holder. Keep doing this until you have the whole surface covered. Be sure not to get the glass and paper too wet, to keep it from sliding over the glass surface. Then let it dry and they are ready to use!
