DIY Series - Vine Wreath Candle Lanterns


This one is really, really easy! Simply find some great shaped jars, like those used for jams. You could use an assortment of different shapes and sizes or the one type for a more uniform look. Pick a favourite foliage: rosemary, ivy or eucalyptus would work well, and follow the steps below.

Step 1.
Clean your jars. If you need to get labels off, soak them in almost boiling hot water and leave them sitting. The labels will simply slide off if you leave them long enough.



Step 2.
Cut your foliage to the right length and wrap them around the tops of the jar using some florists wire to secure.



Step 3.
Place some pillar candles in your jars and light for an ambient glow!



EASY!
