प्रत्येकाच्या कपाळी म्हणे
भाग्य लिहिलेलं असतं
आठ्या पाडून म्हणूनच ते
चुरगळायचं नसतं

कलाकुसर - Make Hanging Jar Lanterns ...

Make Hanging Jar Lanterns ...

Materials:
1) Assorted sizes and styles of glass jars with a lip
2) Fine gage metal wire
3) Wire cutters
4) Needle nose pliers
5) Votive candles


Steps :-

1) Collect small jam jar sized glass jars with a lip just below the top. If it is transparent then you can paint on it whatever you like. eg - small star, small candle, flowers etc. it will look good.


2) Take a long piece of wire and bend it around the jar just under the lip so that a ring is formed. With the needle nose pliers twist the wire together close to the jar to secure the ring. When tightening the wire be sure to leave a little give so that you can attach the handle.


3) Once the ring is created you will have 2 approximately 8 inch long wires originating from the point where the circle is twisted closed.


4) Bend the excess wires over the top of the jar and attach them to the wire ring to create a handle.


5) Place a votive candle inside the jar. Then you can close the jar. but make sure that the closing part should have small small holes.


6) Hang it in a tree with sturdy branches, far enough from the end of the branch, so the jar won't slip off in the wind. Light the candles to create a magical effect.


7) Caution should be used with any open flame; do not leave candles burning unsupervised.
