Upside Pumpkin Votive Holder Day 14 of 31 Days of Halloween

  Today I combined a glass painting project on plastic and stamps on the votive holder which is a recycled item (surprise!):) The upside down plastic wine glass had a beautiful green stem which played beautifully into the painting design.  For the votive holder I took the top of a spray paint can that was black and stamped on matte photo paper.  I used my trusty watercolor markers to give it color and of course this is NOT for a real candle.  I am banned from them in my home because I am forgetful so I love the new tealights that run on batteries.  This one came from Target, two for one dollar, and were in glittery colors.  I put a green one in this project!  Sorry for bad photos....keeps happening!  So I will show a few more pics and Happy Crafting till tomorrow which will be half way at 12 o'clock midday here!

What a creative candle holder. I bet it looks beautiful at night when lit. Battery candles are fantastic and can be used any where and any time (especially windy nights!!)

    My precious grandpuppy, Yoshi! He went through gastrointestinal surgery for an obstruction in August and almost didn't make it. It is now November and he is doing so well just can't eat hard food:( But I love mushing his food twice a day and feeding my beautiful baby boy:)
