Crafts for Summer and All Seasons - Votive with Glass Nuggets

Create a romantic light for the warm summer evenings with this votive candle glass decoration. This summer craft project is inexpensive, quick and easy to do. It also makes a great group project for teens and adults alike. This project uses a combination of clear and opaque nuggets to make it more interesting. When the light shines through the spaces between the nuggets, it looks gorgeous. You can also change colors or use different colors of nuggets for a totally new look.

Instructions:

Tip: Follow the manufacturers instructions written on the glue. For this project, dot a pearl size amount of glue on a few nuggets at a a time. Let them rest and then press them firmly on the glass one at a time.

1. Start at the bottom of the glass. For the first row you will be alternating nuggets. Start with the first nugget and press it firmly onto the glass. Next to it, add the next nugget of the alternate color. Continue until the first row is finished.
2. On the second row use only one color of nuggets and add them over the first row over the intervals between the nuggets.
3. For the next row alternate the nuggets again but this time alternate also according to the first row. If you have a opaque nugget on the first row, use a clear one this time.
4. For the next row use only the other colored nuggets opposite of step 2.
5. Rows 5 until finish.... repeat the patterns in steps 1-4.
