DIY Pink Frosted Votive Candle Holders

crafts, DIY January 20, 2015

Today I have another easy DIY project for you. One thing I like about do-it-yourself projects is that you can customize them and create a one-of-a-kind look. Or sometimes when you can’t find what you’re looking for at the store, you can just make it yourself. Today I’m sharing how to make DIY Pink Frosted Votive Candle Holders. Yours don’t have to be pink … you could make them any color you like to go with your decor.

DIY Pink Frosted Votives. Easy tutorial.Since it’s close to Valentine’s Day, I decided to make these frosted votives pink.

 

Supplies for making frosted votive candle holdersYou’ll need Epsom salt, pink food coloring, 4 small tumblers, and Mod Podge.

I found my tumblers at Walmart for under $3 for the set.

 

Epsom salts dyed pink with food coloring to make frosted votive candle holders.Add pink food coloring to a bowl of Epsom salts.

I mixed way more than I needed, but I’d rather have too much than not enough.

 

"Paint" a glass tumbler with Mod Podge before adding pink Epsom salts.Using a foam brush, apply Mod Podge to the outside of your tumbler.

You don’t need to apply the glue to the bottom of the glass.

Keep turning the glass until it’s covered. Shake off any excess and let dry.

    Hi Jennifer,
    Your votives are so pretty and I love the pink. Epson salt is amazing! I love using it inside my small hurricanes that I got at the dollar store. They sparkle so nicely when the tealight is lit.
