Mason Jar + Leaf = One Cute Project!

If you're wondering what to do for a centerpiece for Thanksgiving I've got a cute idea

that will take you about five minutes to put together. . .

 

 

these autumn leaf luminaries.

 

 

All you need is an old Mason jar, a leaf, and some twine or raffia.

 

 

You can use small jars or large ones.

 

Then just tie the leaf to the jar using raffia or twine.

I wrapped the raffia around twice before tying it.

 

Place a  tealight candle in the jar and you've got a darling candle holder.

 

It would look really cute paired up with this autumn project from Friday.

 

Thanks for stopping by and God bless.

 

Your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

Patriotic Sequined Candle Holders

I've been wanting to do a red, white, and blue project with the Fourth coming up,

so I whipped up these patriotic mason jar candle holders.

Today's project literally cost me only $1.25.

I can't really say that I made this project because it took me all of about ten seconds to do this.

Recently on one of my thrift store outings, I came across some sequined wristlets for ten cents apiece.

I picked them up with this project in mind.

Then I got out three jars that I picked up for a quarter apiece on another thrift store outing and slid the wristlets over the jars- like coozies.

Voila! Three darling candle holders- or silverware holders for a Fourth of July picnic.

(Isn't my USA sign cute? I got it from my Secret Sister at church.)

I've got another patriotic project that I hope to make this week, so stop back on Friday to see:)

Thanks for stopping by and God bless.

He only is my rock and my salvation;

He is my defense;

I shall not be greatly moved.

Psalm 62:2
