The Designers Craft Connection Blog Hop theme for this month is “Patriotic”
So I created this “Patriotic” Quick and Easy Candle Sleeve with Makin’s Clay®…
Makin’s Star Cutters
Makin’s Clay Roller
Beacon’s Quick Grip Glue
Red Pillar Candle
Instructions:
Roll out blue clay with the clay roller to about 1/8″ place texture sheet on top and roll with clay roller to create texture. Use star cutter and cut out 8 stars; let dry. Repeat with white clay. Overlap blue stars over white stars gluing in place with Beacon’s Quick Grip Glue; hold for just a few seconds for it to bond. I used 16 stars for a 3″ pillar candle you may have to use more or less depending upon the size of your candle.
