Here is an easy pillar candle decoration to make! Add some pizzazz to your Christmas Eve table with this craft, and be ready to wow your guests.
Total Time: 20 minutes
Yield: one candle decoration
Supplies:
- stiff cardstock
- pack of standard size white paper cupcake liners
- ten 25mm red glitter pom-poms
- Rolkem gold dusting powder
- two plastic lids, one with a diameter of 7.5" and the other with a diameter of 3.5"
- pillar candle, for safety a flameless or LED candle can be used
- hot glue gun and glue sticks
- pencil
- standard scissors
- paintbrush
Steps:
- Place the plastic lid with the diameter of 7.5" onto the cardstock and trace around it, so that you will have traced a big circle on to the cardstock. Cut out the traced circle.
- Center the second plastic lid with the diameter of 3.5" on the cardstock and trace around it. Cut out the second circle, so that you will have a cardstock ring.
- Fold a cupcake liner in half, then pinch it in the center and ruffle it up towards the centre of the liner to form a flower. Add a drop of hot glue to the cardstock ring and glue the centre of the cupcake liner flower to the ring.
- Add the second cupcake liner in the same way, gluing it right next to the first. Keep adding cupcake liner flowers until the cardstock ring has been completely covered.
- Use the paintbrush and the gold dusting powder to add a gold shimmer to some areas of the cupcake liner flowers.
- Hot glue the glitter pom-poms to the wreath.
- Add the pillar candle and your Christmas Eve decoration is ready. Tip: You can also use the paintbrush and the gold dusting powder to add a gold shimmer to the pillar candle before placing it in the centre of the decoration.
