Christmas Candy Holders

Hello Everyone!

Hope your all having a great week, Its FRIDAY!!!

Well I just wanted to share a quick post of a project I made last night for some of my friends. While I was living in Okinawa, Japan I attended lots of Party Lite parties with some of my girlfriends. I swear I had a party to attend every weekend... I had Tupperware, Party Lite, scrapbooking, Spice it up parties ect... EVERY WEEKEND! LOL Wasn't too good for my hubbys wallet. =)

Anyway's I have lots of candles from Party Lite and once they are burnt out I always keep the glass bowls thinking "oh I can do something with this"... well I never got around to it till now. I had 4 of the same glass candle holders... Well I have lots of them but they are not burnt out yet.

Here is how they come new...


Here is one of them with out the candle


I didn't want to go out and buy Crinkle Paper so I made my own.


I used two sheets of 8 1/2 x 11 and cut them down to 1/4 of an inch


I ran them thru my paper crimper


Then I cut them in half


I made 4 piles and made them in to a ball


Then I spread the paper inside the glass



This is the paper I used to decorate the outside of the glass. I will list all the supplies under each finished Candy glass bowl.


Here are pics of the candy glass bowls all decorated ready for the candy!
