I am known for attempts at being creative. I'm a Pinterest junkie (who ISN'T?!) and when I found this: I was motivated!
Glass Candle Votives:
(The picture on the left...)
I thought a cluster of glass votives would be darling on our backyard patio table.
I had my parent's save a week's worth of glass jars (pickles, jam, relish, olives......) and saved ours. I soaked the jars in soapy water to remove the sticky labels (but I didn't obsess about sticky residue...these jars were going to live outside on our patio table).
Rubberband them! I just bought a random assortment bag for a buck at Target.
Turn them upside down and spray paint them. I just used whatever white stuff Husby had in the garage. But I also used a CLEAR sealant spray paint to seal the paint. Wait a few hours for the paint to dry.
I cut the rubberbands off so I wouldn't mess up the paint patterns. I bought votive candles (16 in a bag) for a dollar at Dollar Tree. Voila!
