Glitter Candle Tutorial




While searching for ideas for Christmas gifts I came across a tutorial to create glitter candles. Being a girl and loving anything involving a little sparkle I had to make these for myself. It also was inspiration for the perfect gift for my best friend (who also shares an obsession with glitter). 


This craft could not be easier! Just purchase (or make) an amazing smelling candle, grab some Mod Podge and your favorite glitter. 


First take the candles and remove any stickers around the edges



Next paint the candle with a generous amount of Mod Podge around the sides. Make sure there is enough to hold the sparkles!



This is the fun part. Dump the glitter all over the candle and shake off the excess! Then Voila, A perfect glitter candle. You have the option of doing a top coat to keep the glitter from coming off but I skipped this because I thought it takes away some of the shine.


Happy Holidays!
