Romantic Lace Candle Holders
Supplies:
- Candle Holders
- Lace Trim Ribbon
- Découpage Multi-Surface Durable Matte Finish (I used the Martha Stewart Crafts brand.)
- Découpage Brush
- Scissors
- Wax Paper
Instructions:
Step 1: Take out the lace trim you would like to use on your candle holder.
Wrap it around the candle holder and cut off the extra lace.
Step 2: Place the lace trim on a piece of wax paper.
Apply the Découpage finish onto a small length of lace (just enough to go on one side of the candle holder) using the brush.
Step 3: Lay the candle holder on its side and apply the lace trim on one side.
Allow it to dry for about 15-20 minutes.
Step 4: Repeat Step 3 until you have completed all the side of the candle holder.
Step 5: Add a candle and you are finished!
Pretty cute right?
I just LOVE how they turned out and I can’t wait to make more!
I used the leftover lace to make lace clay bowls, they look awesome!

Yesterday I was sort of down in the dumps and there's a Michael's 1 mile from us so DH wanted me to drive him to Quisnos for a sub. As I entered the door and started to walk down the crafts aisles, I spotted lace like this in cellaphane packages with glass vases and mason jar sample demostrations above. I didn't really check it out thoroughly but immediately I knew I had seen this on Pinterest. Next time I'm down there, I'll check it out more thoroughly. Since DH was waiting for me, I couldn't take my time to examine it.
