I made this candle holder out of a baby food jar. The smallest baby food jars work the best.
You will need:
1 small baby food jar
sequins
school glue
hot glue and hot glue gun
glitter
votive candle
All you do is hot glue sequins around the top of the jar to cover the rings where the lid screws on, smear on some elmer's glue and roll it in glitter. Hot glue your small votive candle in the bottom and your done.
This craft is easy enough for a pre-schooler to do as long as an adult hot glues on the sequins first.
I made these for my Sunday School class last year and we lit the candles and sang "Happy Birthday" to Jesus.
The idea and finished product are great, especially for the children's gift list. As impressed as I am with the project, I'm SO much more impressed with the SONG. Yes, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR JESUS.
