Instructions
Candle Plate and Candle
- Trace around the plate onto a piece of scrapbook paper. (leave a little extra for overhang – this will be trimmed later). Cut out the design. Apply Mod Podge to the back of the plate and to the top side (design side) of the cut paper. Place the paper design side down on the back of the plate. Use your fingers to press out any air bubbles. Allow to dry.
- Cut a second piece of scrapbook paper to fit the top-inside of the plate. Apply Mod Podge to the back and front of the paper. Position the paper in the center of the plate, press out any air bubbles with your fingers and smooth your brush strokes. Allow to dry and hot glue decorative trim around the edge of the paper.
- Hot glue decorative trim around the outer edge of the plate. Add a flower to one corner and apply the “New Year” stickers across the top of the plate.
- Trim the last piece of scrapbook paper to fit around the candle. Apply Mod Podge to the back of the paper. Wrap the paper around the candle, hold into position. Apply more Mod Podge as topcoat over the design.
Party Hats
- Begin with dollar store party hats. Disassemble the hats.
- To make a glitter hat, paint the hat with the Silver Anniversary. Next, topcoat with three layers of Silver Extreme Glitter, allowing to dry between layers. Once dry reassemble the hat.

- Decorate: Using hot glue, add feather trims, decorative trims and loose feathers, chipboard shapes, or rhinestones letters to the hats. Hot glue silk flowers to the hats.
Champagne Holder
- Remove the top of the wine holder, paint the top with the Silver Anniversary. When dry, paint over silver with three layers of Silver Extreme Glitter, allowing to dry between layers. Once dry, hot glue trim around the top. Add feathers and flowers to the top with hot glue.
