Recycle glass soda bottles into these fun and modern Christmas candle holders made to look like trees!
SO easy to make and customize.
Ive been sitting on this project for a long time!
The shape was nice and reminded me of a modern Christmas tree.
And then it struck me.
I was going torecyclethese cool bottles intoChristmas trees.
Christmas candle holders, to be exact.
They turned out even better than I imagined.
And that is primarily because of one special secret ingredient.
Heres how I made theserecycled Christmascandle holders!
I knew it would be my secret to adding a Christmas tree look to the bottles.
And I will show you how I used it in a moment.
The first thing to do was clean the bottles.
Next was to spray paint the bottles.
Then I attached the tape where it overlapped on itself naturally as shown above.
Once you are satisfied with tape placement, smooth it down thoroughly.
Then use white paint and a stencil brush to create a snow-like effect just as I did above!
Spounce the white paint all the way around the tree and on top of the scalloped tape.
Peel up the tape immediately.
it’s possible for you to see how the snow looks at the top of this photo!
Let dry and then repeat again.
How far up you choose to go is up to you.
I said before that I placed the tape where the scallops naturally met.
I did that again and rotated the scallops so they wouldnt be in exactly the same place.
Then I painted again.
Just do the best you could!
And when you reach the very top, its probably not going to fit .
so just do the best you’ve got the option to!
If you have a seam, you’ve got the option to put it in the back.
Just keep dipping and making dots!
As many as you like.
Then add candles to your Christmas candle holders!
I am SO thrilled with my Christmas trees .
I only spent $1 on candles for this Christmas tree candle holder project!
I had everything else on hand including the spray paint.
