Today we invite you and your little helpers to join us in creating a cozy tealight holder from a small crocheted blanket. This enchanting DIY project will not only add a warm atmosphere to your home but also provide a fun and creative activity for the whole family. Here are the comfortable steps to create your own tealight holder.
Materials needed:
- balloons
- small crocheted blankets (from grandma or flea market)
- paste
- A pair of scissors
- tea lights
Step 1: Preparing the balloon
- Inflate the balloon to the desired size for your tea light, matching the size of the crocheted blanket.
Step 2: Attaching the crocheted blanket
- Together with your children, glue the crocheted blanket to the balloon using paste. Leave the paste relatively thick so that the blanket adheres well, and apply paste about 1 cm above the blanket to the balloon.
Step 3: Let it dry
- Allow the crocheted blanket to dry with the paste for 1-2 days so that it hardens. During the drying process, you can do other craft projects with the children or spend the time reading a story.
Step 4: Removing the balloon
- Once the paste has dried, pop the balloon with scissors together with the children and remove the residue from the tea light.
Step 5: Finishing the tea light
- Finally, place a tea light inside the crocheted tea light holder and enjoy the cozy atmosphere it creates in your home.
With these simple steps, you and your little helpers have made a magical tealight holder from a crocheted blanket that will fill your home with warmth and light.
Have fun crafting together!
