Plastic bottle candle holder – recycling crafts

Posted on May 2, 2016 | 1 comment

Sometimes these fun recycling projects are so interesting for adults as much as for kids. For instance, these flower candle holders made from empty plastic bottles were fun to make for both of me and nady. They made a beautiful decoration element in the house.

All you need are:

empty plastic bottles
scissors
lighter
acrylic paints
candles

How to do?!

Start by cutting the top part of the bottle with a scissor. Cut five to six parts (making the petals) than trim each part to look like a flower petal. Pass the edges over a lighter flame, to burn and torn them to look like a real petal. Then give it to your kid to color it. After it’s completely dry insert a candle.

Nady chose blue and green colors, they turned out really amazing. i am in love with these candle holders. I am sure a lot of you wouldn’t believe it’s made from plastic bottles.

DIY Palm Sunday candle – flowers

Posted on April 10, 2014 | 2 comments

There are many ways to decorate the palm sunday candle at home. If your precious is a girl and you want to make something simple and girly, you will like this one.

Colors are very subjective depending on your girl cloths, her favourite colors or even yours!

In a previous post i showed you how to make these beautiful flowers. Check spring flowers for tutorials, but this time you will need ribbons and buttons for the carpel.

Start by wrapping two intertwined ribbons on the 1/3 third of the candle to keep space for the little hand to hold it.

If you noticed they are 3 sizes flowers. Glue the big and medium one on the wrapped ribbons and the small on one of the hanging ribbons as shown.

And it’s ready 🙂 Simple, easy and beautiful.
