12/16/2020

0 Comments

 
I love adding candles into my holiday decor, it’s festive and adds warmth into your space. I found these candle holders at my local Salvation Army, perfect for a fun snowy candle holder DIY. Here is how you can easily create this DIY just in time for the holidays.
Materials
  • Thrifted candle holders
  • Modge Podge
  • small paint brush
  • Epsom salts
  • wax paper or a small drop cloth
  • Jute rope
  • Spruce, cedar clipping or decorative berries
  • Hot glue gun

Step One

After cleaning your candle holders, use your paint brush to apply a thick layer of Modge Podge. Work in small areas as the Modge Podge dries quickly.

Step Two
​Pour some Epsom salts on your wax paper. Gently roll your candle holder with the wet Modge Podge into your Epsom salt.

Step Three
​Repeat step one and two until your candle holder is covered with epsom salts. Make sure to add more to spots that were missed.

Step Four
​Wrap the jute rope around the mouth of your candle holder and tie it off. Add glue if you need to keep it in place. Add glue to the knot to place your clippings of spruce or cedar and your holiday berries.

​To add more of a dramatic impact create a set to make a dramatic display  on your mantel or dining room table. Happy thrifting!
