Habitat bright ideas with Fleur Thorpe – DIY projects
Create a colourful candle jar for mum this Mother’s Day. You can use as many or as few colours as you like – incorporate all mum’s favourites on one jar.
Wall painted in Resene Carrara and Resene Sweet Spot
Fleur used:
Step 1
Start with a large class jar.
Step 2
Use some masking tape to tape over the front portion of the jar.
Step 3
Use scissors to cut out a heart shape out of paper and use loops of sellotape to attach this to the masking tape.
Step 4
Trace around the outside of the heart with a vivid marker pen.
Step 5
Remove the paper heart and use a sharp craft knife to cut around the vivid outline of the heart. Carefully remove the masking tape that surrounds the heart.
Step 6
Let your little person loose with the paintbrush and paints! Fleur used Resene Lucky Point, Resene Green House, Resene Smitten, Resene Hopskotch and Resene Noosa.
Step 7
Once the paint is dry, carefully remove the taped heart.
Step 8
Make a tag and attach it to the top of the jar with string or ribbon and place a candle in the jar.
Top tip: Use testpots of Resene FX Metallic paint to add extra bling to your candle jar.
