Salt dough candle holders


A Christmas angel in salt dough, inspired by German porcelain.

the idea is to create a base for a large candle with an original shape
Cut out the candle shape from thick salt dough, leaving a 1 cm margin. Push in the candle to mark its position, then remove it. Model small leaves in salt dough and arrange them around the shape. Bake or leave to dry.

Collage candles and photophores


Photophores are a fun manual activity for children, who will play the little decorators with great seriousness...

Vertical strips of Decopatch paper are glued (with napkin glue) onto this glass candle-holder, followed by a darker strip placed horizontally at the bottom of the glass. Then, while the glue is not yet dry, the small gold stars are added.
Golden candle jar
Photophore made by Loïc, aged 6, under Marie's guidance ;) Pieces of napkins are glued onto a glass yoghurt pot (remember to double up), followed by small golden Christmas shapes. Finally, a brass wire is wound onto which large white pearls have been strung. Cherry on the cake: the candle is placed on a bed of small crystal pearls. See the paper napkin collage technique.

Photophores in glass paint


Paint on glass is applied with a brush, then fired in a domestic oven.

The contours of the painted shapes are outlined with copper circles.
A fun experiment: with the jar upside down, drip large drops of paint over the edges (lightly painted with a thick brush beforehand).

glass paint for photophore

there's a "translucent" color of Fimo clay that can be used to cover a glass jar with a mosaic of Fimo clay shapes, creating a lovely light effect for an original candle jar... (be careful not to stain the translucent paste with another color, as it loses its transparent properties). Eager to
