As I mentioned yesterday, Mr. B and I are hosting two Thanksgiving celebrations this year, one for our friends this weekend, and one for our families on Thanksgiving day. So I have been doing some crafts to get ready for the big days! Since I am a fan of all things glittery and sparkly, I decided to glam up some old votive candle holders. I actually already had all the supplies for this project: votives, glitter, a sponge brush, some Mod Podge, and a sealing spray.
The steps for this project are pretty simple. Take your Mod Podge and spread it evenly on the votive glass. Cover with glitter. Let the glue dry for a while and then spray with the sealer (otherwise you will leave a trail of glitter everywhere these votives go). Here they are pre-sealer...
And the finished product!
So much more festive than plain votives. Plus, since they are in a neutral metallic, they are going to work for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Super easy, and super pretty!
These are gorgeous! I love that you chose a more neutral metallic so they're versatile.
