It’s been awhile since we’ve crafted together…
and frankly,
I am having withdrawals.
So today,
I have a fall craft that is a must have to display around your home.
PSST…
I got my Pottery Barn catalog in the mail today and it’s pumpkins GALORE!
DIY Glitter Pumpkin Candle Holders
Styrofoam pumpkin (on sale at Michaels)
sharp knife
mod podge
glitter
spoon
paint brush
tea light candle (mine are even pumpkin spice, my favorite)
To begin, cut a circle around the top of your pumpkin.
I used my tea light candle to gauge how big to make my circle.
Scoop out Styrofoam with a spoon.
Using your paint brush, layer your entire pumpkin with mod podge.
Sprinkle with glitter.
Let your pumpkin dry completely overnight.
Place a tea light in your cut out circle.
Display.
I loved the way they looked on my silver candle sticks.
Light and Enjoy
