Difficulty level: Beginner
Time to complete: 30 minutes
Age range: 12 and up
Things you’ll need:
Pillar candlestick holder
Wood plaques
Wooden clothespins
Hot glue gun/glue sticks
E6000 glue
Burlap ribbon
Scissors
Wood stain
Things to do:
1. The first step is staining your wood plaques. I used a spray on stain and applied a thin coat to give it a slight grey tint.
2. When the stain is dry, use E6000 glue to secure one of your plaques flat across the top of your candlestick holder.
3. Use E6000 glue to secure the second plaque to the center of the flat plaque.
4. Glue a window clothespin to the top, center of your standing plaque.
5. Trim off a piece of burlap ribbon and tie it in a bow. Use hot glue to attach it to the nape of your candlestick holder, just under the flat plaque.
DIY Rustic Valentine’s Day Candles
Valentine’s Day is quickly approaching – Decorate your space with this quick and simple project! If you love rustic, vintage decor, you’ll love this DIY!
Difficulty level: Beginner
Time to complete: 5 Minutes
Age range: 8 and Up
Things you’ll need:
Pillar candle
Jute
Hot glue gun
Hot glue sticks
Scissors
Tin hearts
Grapevine hearts
Things to do:
1. The first step is wrapping your candle in jute. Start about 1-inch from the top and secure the end with a small drop of hot glue. Wrap the jute around the candle, being careful to overlap the jute so the end stays in place. Continue wrapping until several inches have been covered.
2. Next, start decorating your candle. I started with tin hearts and use hot glue to attach them to the jute. You can bend the tin so the heart shape perfectly wraps the curve of your candle.
3. Finish with grapevine wire hearts to add another dimension of decor.
