Halloween Votive Holders






I made these little votive holders to set up on the mantle for Halloween. I used some very old wood CTMH stamps sets. The pumpkins was called the Pumpkin Patch and it was a single stamp. The other two were made from then set called Trick or Treaters. I used a heavy vellum and stamped in black on the front. Then I took CTMH markers and colored in on the back side. I used some DMC floss to sew the 2 pieces together and slip them over a glass candle holder. Then put in a tea light or candle and light. The glow from the flames shines through the image and they are really cute!. Fun, Easy and Quick to make using any stamps you would want. My vellum pieces were cut 2 1/2 x 6. Cut the vellum according to the size candle holders you are using. Two for each one you would make. You could put the ends together in a number of different ways also.
