Materials:
- Small copper or gold baking cups
- Paper, painted yellow & textured
- Fine glitter in gold & copper
- Glue stick
- Hot glue gun
- Gold clips
Instructions:
- Cut out pieces of paper that measure 2-inches by 3-inches for the candle body.
- Roll the piece of paper along the 2-inch length and hot glue together, forming a tube.
- Cut a small circle large enough to cover one end of the paper tube and hot glue onto the top.
- Cut a small candle flame from the paper. Cover with glue and glitter and hot glue onto top of tube
- Using your hot glue gun, create the “wax drip” around and on top of the candle and cover with copper glitter.
- Take two baking cups and flip one of them inside out. Apply the glue stick on the inner, white, side of one baking cup, and place the other inside it, so both sides of the cup have the copper sheen.
- Hot glue the candle inside the baking cup.
- Hot glue a clip to the bottom of the baking cup to clip onto your Christmas tree. You can also omit the clip and just nestle the candle into the tree as well.
