Check it Out! I am all about using what I have, especially when it comes to crafts. I love making something out of nothing and everytime I walk by it, I get that proud feeling of accomplishment again.
Last month I posted a TBCCrafters project that left me with some left over marble stones. You can see that craft, a marbled wooden letter when you GO HERE. I also have a bunch of jars, so I decided the two together would make a great candle holder.
There are only 3 things needed for this craft:
*Marble stones
*Glass jar or vase
*Silicone (you could also use hot glue)
So to get started I just picked a random spot and applied silicone to the back of my stones and attached them randomly on one side. Because it does take a little time for the silicone to dry, I recommend propping your jar on its side so that the jar doesn't roll and you can focus on that section.
Now you can work your way around the jar. I made a band using the larger stones around the top, which I really like. It's kinda a puzzle with no set pattern so you just have to work it all out. I did used some of my broken pieces from the other craft to fill in the larger holes.
Once your done, pop in a candle and you are ready for some really pretty ambiance. The colors and the glow is absolutely beautiful in my bathroom along with all the beachy themed stuff.
I really am having fun working with these marble stones and have some more crafts coming up using them, and using more jars as well, so stay tuned!!
Beautiful! Could be made to match anywhere!! Pinned & Tweeted!
