Glittered Canning Jar Ring Candle Holders

December 17, 2013 By Shannah Coe 2 Comments

I am so excited to be partnering with SNAP Creativity and Recollections Glitter for this project.  As always, all thoughts and opinions shared here are my own. #glitteratmichaels

I’m a wreath failure, ya’ll.  Yep…a total failure.  I set out to make one of those gorgeous canning jar ring wreaths and totally failed.  I think it was something to do with me being totally impatient but who knows.  What I do know is that I was left with the 380 canning jar rings I purchased off of Craiglist ($10…score!) and no clue what to do with them.  What’s a girl to do?  Well, being the holidays, I decided it made perfect sense to add glitter to a bunch of them and use them as candle holders.  Now, I am in love with glittered canning jar ring candle holders but still have like 350 more rings and no clue what to do with them.  Ideas are appreciated!Finished Candle Holder with Label_wm

So, to make these candle holders, you’ll need
– some canning jar rings {seriously, I’ll mail you some}
– mod podge
– a foam paint brush
– some glitter

I chose the really fine Recollections brand glitter because I like the color selection in both the sets and individual bottles available.  Plus, I thought it would work well on my project and any future crafts I may want to add glitter too.  If you want a bigger glitter {i.e. chunkier or tinsel glitter}, they have that too {and it starts at only $3.99…score} and either of those will definitely work on this project.Glitter selection_wm

Oh, you’ll want several large bowls or boxes too for glitter overflow.  A paper plate works great too in a punch.Excess Glitter on Plate_wm

Start by brushing mod podge onto your canning jar ring.  Be generous so it will really grab the glitter.Paint mod podge with label_wm

Then, over one of your bowls or boxes, pour glitter onto the mod podge.  Lightly shake the ring to remove the excess glitter {over the bowl/box obviously}.  Set down and let dry for 1-2 hours.Pour glitter on Ring_wm

I also created a few where the ring inserts were glittered and then glued inside.  I used those to raise the candles up a bit versus creating a candle ring.  The process is the same…mod podge…glitter…let dry.Inside of glittered ring_wm

I wanted the glitter to really be the star here so I just paired the candle holders with some white candles I had.  So sparkly…I’m in love!

What have you done with canning jar rings recently?  Have you been working with a bunch of glitter during the holidays?

You can get Recollections #glitteratmichaels in all sorts of colors and textures starting at only $3.99.  Plus, they are available in sets or individual bottles.
