Glowing Goblins
Word Count: 163
Project: Glowing Goblins
This project is perfect for the artistically challenged or those
who prefer instant gratification. My young sons completed theirs
in just 15 minutes.
Supplies
Glass Votive (any size or shape) Solid Black Halloween Stickers
(bats, witches, ghosts, etc.) -OR- Stencils, Stamps, and Black
Acrylic Paint Orange Tissue Paper, Torn Into Pieces 2 TBSP White
Glue 2 TBSP Water Craft Brush
Directions
1. Adhere stickers onto the outside of the votive -OR- If using
stencils or stamps, paint heavily enough that no light shines
through the shapes. Let dry completely.
2. Mix glue and water. Paint glue onto the outside of glass, on
top of the stickers.
3. While the glue is wet, layer pieces of tissue paper and glue
until the entire votive is covered and the tissue is saturated.
4. Turn the votive upside down to dry (a hairdryer speeds up the
process).
5. Once dry, add a tea light and let the glow from these festive
candles welcome the neighborhood spooks.
