Paper cut candle gifts

Ever thought of using paper for covering glass votive candles? They look beautiful trust me!
These look amazing on your table, perfect for a candle light dinner.
They also look beautiful in the day light on your desk to show off your artistic taste.
Have a look at what I made today. They were fairly simple to make and it took me around an hour to make these.

I tried some random ideas. I am really bad at drawing and designs. While doing the floral design I kinda left the paper cutting of the leaves hanging. Liked that look.
If you are planning to try this idea, do not use the paper around a candle with out a glass votive.

Recycled Magazine Paper Gift

You can make some beautiful gifts with waste magazine papers or smooth finish news papers. Think twice before you throw the papers/magazines into trash next time. They can be put to better use with little effort :)
I tried to make a simple container with the waste papers today. The structure is not so even as I tried different sized circles.
Here is the result of what i made today.
It was little strenuous and it took more than hour for me to do this.

Fill this with some candies/chocolates, Tie a ribbon around and gift it to your favorite someone and make their day.

You can also put a cute stuff toy and gift it to your special someone.

Mag-Paper-2

This can also be used as a flower vase.

It can also be used as a candle holder. It will form beautiful shadows in the candle light.
Sorry i couldn’t capture the actual image

Mag-Paper-candleholder

Well the options to use it are endless. Its left to your creativity.
We can also make some beautiful jewelry with the magazine papers. I will update it in the future posts.

This one was pretty simple to make. But be ready to spend some time and get your hands dirty with glue :)
