Frosted DIY Candle Holders

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I have been in the process of moving into a new apartment. I finally found where I packed all of my crafting stuff and decided to take on a simple, quick project. I made the DIY Candle-holder and it took all of 25 min (20 of which was drying time).

Supplies Needed:

• Clear, Glass Candle-holder (whichever size & shape you want) 
• Frosted Glass Spray paint -white (you can use other colors... the one I used was white)
• Rubber bands... tape... anything along those lines. (i used a variety so I could have different width lines)

My cylinder candle-holder with one rubber band already on it & frosted glass spray from Michael's

• Wrap the rubber bands, tape... whatever you're using, around the holder. Make sure it's all tightly on there so you get clear lines. 

*Hint: the masking tape was my favorite because it was easy to get off & I didn't have to wait for the spray paint to totally dry before taking it off. Yes, I am so impatient that I can’t wait 20 minutes for spray paint to dry. *

• Spray paint the candle-holder outside. Make sure you don’t get too happy with the spray paint can because it will run and not look super even.

*Hint: I sprayed too much in one area so I wiped the running paint off with my finger and sprayed it. Now, you can’t really tell that I messed up. The very first picture in the blog shows the side with the smudge.. not super noticeable. 

Pretty and lit. I have it on
my mantle & love it. 

• Let it dry for 20-30 minutes just to be safe. Carefully remove the rubber bands, tape, etc.  Voila! You have a fancy, expensive-looking candle holder!  (In my picture, I have a small candle in a large holder. I need to get a larger candle. That would make it look better… not quite as empty!Obviously)

Do you think you’ll try this DIY Project? If you have, let  me know how it goes!
