Lavender Aroma Candles - Simple Diwali DIY

Hi! Scented candles contain essential oils that help you relax and unwind after a long day. They have medicinal and soothing properties to relieve anxiety. Special Occasions: We have all heard of or even been on candle-lit dinners with our special someone.

This Diwali, I am making Aroma candles at home :)

  2. Once melted, add wax crayons of the desired color.

  4. Anchor wicks to bottom of mason jars/ glass bowl using a bit of wax.
  5. Pour wax into mason jar and then repeat until all jars are full. Depending on size of mason jars.
  6. Let stand until solid (about 1 hour).

Decoupage Candles - Simple DIY

 Welcome to a fun DIY!

Decoupage is an art form I’m really getting into at the moment. I have posted decoupage DIY tutorials before, and I thoroughly enjoyed them! You can cover pretty much anything in sheets of gorgeous design – if you have the right glue and a bit of patience, of course. So I thought to myself, how difficult are DIY decoupage candles?

We’ve all seen them at the craft fairs. They look absolutely gorgeous, but also a bit expensive to buy. While I would love to have one of these in every room of my house, I just couldn’t afford to keep it up. So… yup, you guessed it, let’s make them ourselves!!!

I used the heat method to stick the napkin to the candle. I used an old Iron for this purpose. First cut out the tissue paper of the required size. Keep the napkin on the candle and slowly rub the iron on the napkin. you will observe that it will stick to the surface of the candle. cut the extra paper if there is any.
It can be a little bit tricky method but I am sure you gonna love the results!


Wooden Tissue Box Holder

 Hi! Today I am back with a different kind of project. It’s a lovely MDF Tissue Box Holder for your desk/ Kitchen/ Washroom/ Utility that you will use daily to keep your wipes. You can decorate a Wooden Tissue Box Holder to bring you joy when you look at it!!! I made two MDF Tissue Box Holders.

Take a plain wooden Tissue Box Holder from any craft store. Apply a thin layer of gesso to prime it. Decoupage the top of the box with your choice of tissue paper. Apply acrylic paint at the bottom part. Also Make a thin border of some contrasting color. it will help in highlighting the colors of the decoupaged tissue paper. Mostly two coating will be needed of the acrylic color.


Apply 2-3 Coats of Varnish and Voila !! its Done !!

I made one more similar MDF tissue Box holder.

Mosaic on Earthen Pot

Hello my Crafty friends,
I am back with sharing a Mosaic project I did last year but didn't get time to post it, so here I am with my first Mosaic project and believe me its addictive!
All you need is Mosaic tiles , Glue, Grout and Acrylic Colors to color the grout or rest of the pot. I used yellow for grout and Grey for the top border of the pot. Generally we cut manually the ceramic tiles, but Amazon has some pre-cut tiles so I tried my hands on it and here is the result ..


I observed that since it is an old earthen pot, the Amazon grout developed some cracks in it. I will try doing the technique on other surfaces and will share my observations ...
Thanks!
