This project was inspired by one my fellow Crafting friends.. Her name is Scrappin Madge. She had made some fabulous wine glasses with green glitter on the stem of the glass and on the bottom of them. So when I seen them I knew I had to make something like those!
So check out what I had made!

Ingredients:
Glitter
Can of Spray Adhesive
Candle Holder
Vellum
Embellishments
Cupcake Wrappers ( Cricut Cartridge)
Tea Light
Duck Tape
Aerosol Hairspray
Instructions:
Candle Holder
Take a Dollar Store Glass Candle Holder and Duck Tape , and tape around the areas that you do not want glitter at.
Spray the glass with Spray Adhesive and then sprinkle glitter on it. Then Spray hair spray on it and then the hard part "LET IT DRY"
Then Take the tape off...
Candle Holder Shade
Take Vellum and Cut your design out from the Cupcake Wrapper Cartridge. Cut 3 cupcake wrappers at 21/2" (Note: The more simpler it is the better the shade turns out) Just ask my husband we went round and on this lol.. He had me cutting out like 10 different ones .. Anyways.. Then finish putting the wrapper together and turn upside and there's your shade..How cool is that??
Then take embellishments and finish your shade and put a tea light in it and you have yourself a inexpensive tea light holder and shade!
If you liked this project wait till you see what I made for tomorrow!! I Love it!!!

Oh, what a cool idea! I bet this would look really cool in a wine glass with a stem. I may have to get some cheapies to try it! TYFS!

Don't ya' just love it when hubbys help! lol These are so cute and I am thinking of how fun to create them for special holidays.
Thanks for sharing! :)
Very pretty. I love the shimmer
Cupcake wrappers...how ingenious! Very cute!
these are really cute & clever. Thanks for sharing the details. Does the hairspray really keep the glitter on? I'm a glitter phobe as I hate it getting everywhere! I like the comment about the center pieces. I have a BF getting married & this might be an idea!
These are just so adorable!!
