Creative Halloween Ideas: Decoupage Halloween Candles

I’ve started to get the DIY and creative bug lately, making Marvel Comic chest of drawers and revamping coffee tables, and now I’ve started to find creative Halloween ideas.

The first has been my attempt to decoupage candle glass!

I’ve seen some stunning jars, vases and candles across the internet and they’ve inspired me to give it a go, and with Halloween around the corner it’s the perfect first theme to try. 

I had two glasses to practice on and bought some Halloween napkins from Poundstretcher. 

Here are my first attempts, which are wrinkly and not perfect, but when they’re lit I think they look quite cute!

My Halloween Decoupaged Candle Attempts

I’m going to keep practising them as I’ve been saving all my pasta sauce, coffee and curry jars, and I’ve already started buying Christmas napkins in the hopes I will get good enough to create little jars full of presents as an alternative gift idea.

Halloween Decoupage Tutorial

If you want to give it a try, here’s how I did it:

1. Water down some PVA glue (50/50 ratio).
