Valentine’s Day Votive

We’ve got Melanie from Artzy Creations getting us ready for the mood with this darling Valentine’s Day Votive. It’s never too early for some love!

Hi to all of the Made From Pinterest Fans! This is Melanie from Artzy Creations again bringing you a very simple and easy DIY project for you for Valentine’s Day. I know what your thinking…Valentine’s Day already?! We just had Christmas and now it’s already on to Valentine’s Day. However, it will be here before you know it. Thanks to my youngest daughter Lily reminding me that Valentine’s Day is only WEEKS away. You would think I was paying her to say it. Lol! So, I wanted to bring you something that was simple, fun, and easy to make. Here’s how to make this Easy DIY Valentine’s Day Votive.

Here’s What You Need:

Mason Jar
Heart Stickers
Pink Spray Paint (Matte Finish)
Clear Spray Paint (Matte Finish)
Ribbon, Trim, Scrapbook Pieces (Kaiser Craft) For Embellishment (Optional)
Tea Light Candle

Step 1: Apply the heart stickers to the Mason Jar.

Step 2: Spray paint the jar and let dry.

Step 3: Very carefully and slowly peel off the heart stickers. If the spray paint happens to become scratched off before you seal it, take the spray paint and apply it to a paint brush and touch up the spot. When taking off the stickers, I found it was easiest to remove them from starting at the bottom and peeling them in a clockwise motion. That way it wouldn’t peel off any excess paint.

Step 4: Seal with the clear spray paint and let dry.

Step 5: Add ribbon or trim. You could even attach a love note!

I love how this turned out! If you have a special loved one that you would like to give a gift to, this would be just perfect. Or teacher’s would just melt, if they were to receive one. Just saying since I’m a teacher. 😉

I love how this votive just radiates warmth and love.

Give your special Valentine something the will cherish and keep for a long time without spending hours laboring over the gift!

Thank you to three wonderful sisters from Made From Pinterest for having me. I hope your readers will hop on over and follow all of the crafty goodness from Artzy Creations.

Here’s wishing you all a wonderful 2015 and I will see you again in February!
