How to: frosted lace tealight holders with PlastiKote spray paint

These frosted lace tealight holders are just perfect for Christmas. They will look fabulous as part of your table decoration and can add elegance to any corner of a room. This is our favourite sort of project: a simple makeover using PlastiKote spray paint that elevates the humble glass jar to a whole new level  – just in time for the festive season. Perfect!

 

You will need

 

Old glass jars

Length of lace

Double sided tape

PlastiKote Glass Frosting

Tealights

 

How to

  • Prepare your area for spraying with dustsheets or newspaper – either in a well-ventilated room or outside.
  • Make sure the jars are clean and dry. Cut a length of lace to go round the jar and fix using the double-sided tape, making sure the lace is tight to the jar.

  • Apply two or three fine layers of PlastiKote Glass Frosting following instructions on the can. Don’t be tempted to get total coverage in one go – build the layers until you’re happy with the look.
  • Once the Frosting is completely dry, carefully remove the lace.
