Baby Food Jar Candles
Date Submitted: March 26, 2006
I have made several cute and simple items this year I thought I'd share... 
Materials:
- Baby food jars
- Woodsies (pre-cut Christmas shapes of Balsa)
- 1/4 inch ribbon
- Candle wax or votives
- Gold spray paint
- Glue gun
Directions
I sanded the baby jar lids slightly and then spray-painted them gold. I got bags of woodsies (pre-cut Christmas shapes of Balsa) at Hobby Lobby and painted these; stockings, cottages, santas, angels, etc. Then I hot glued one to the top of each lid, glued the ribbon and bow around the edge of the lid and filled the jar with a scented candle. I poured my own but you could just pop in a votive. They turned out so cute!
The woodsies also make great fridge magnets - just paint and glue on a piece of magnet tape. These can also be for anytime, not just Christmas, as you can buy circles, triangles, hearts, stars, etc.
Have fun and God bless!!!
