Make It : Patriotic Votives

Posted by

I came across this patriotic clip-art from Martha Stewart Living's July 2006 issue.  It's designed to be wrapped around can and used as a vase or serving vessel...

...but I made these festive votive holders.  I printed the clip-art onto vellum, trimmed it down to fit my clear cylindrical votive holder, and attached the vellum to the glass at its seam using double sided tape.

Place on a white table cloth and sprinkle with red and blue confetti for a perfectly patriotic Independence Day table. Are you planning any July 4th get-togethers?  How do you decorate?

Have an amazing 4th of July!!!
