Material Required:
- Tacky glue
-Maple Leaves(real/fabric)
-Mod Podge
-Empty Candle Holders/Mason jars
-Sponge Brush
-led tea light
-Rafia/Ribbon/Wool
This DIY is under 6$ and all the above mentioned stuff is easily available on any dollar tree/craft store.
Lets Begin!
First clean your jar with rubbing alcohol for any grease/moisture or dust. Now flex or damp your leaves as stiff leaves will tear when your try to stick them. Next lay your leaf flat and put tacky glue on its edges.
Place this on the outside of the jar and press gently with your fingers.
After dip the sponge brush in mod podge and go over the leaf.
Repeat this process for as many leaves as you desire. You can even leave some spaces in between the leaves so the candle light can peep through. Once you are done with sticking all the leaves. Let the jar dry over night. Next day just tie the rafia/ribbon/wool on the top and place your led tea light inside.
Now just place your lantern wherever you wish to and enjoy the beautiful fall colours! :)
