Two years ago I used tea lights to decorate at a wedding by gluing "snow glitter" to the top of tea lights, gathering crepe paper and gluing that to the sides. I covered the sides with ribbon and a small bow to make it look good and hold everything together. GENTLY stretching the crepe paper made them look professional.
That's really cute! I was wondering what I was going to do with that adhesive ribbon I bought at Easter - now I know!! Thanks for the idea!!
Too cute!
It is a craft - just because it's not difficult or time consuming doesn't mean it's not worth it. I like the idea of dressing these little guys up. Thanks for the idea.
Yes . I do call it a craft as i make alot of 3D projects like houses-Lanterns-Beach Houses they look really good inside & i think if I decorate them they will look even better than been just plain white, check them out on scrapbookingmad & see for yourself.
oh come on.. you're not REALLY calling this a CRAFT are you?
I have alot of these Tea lights, will give it a go.
