hey everybody I'm Remington welcome to Dollar Tree DIY so to create this
beautiful floating gem candle holder I grab two packs of napkin rings then I
started to lay out my design I glued four rings together first and
when doing this part make sure the glue is not visible from the sides
once the first part was dry I moved to the next section as you can see right
here I'm adding more glue as needed I placed two more rings on top and that
completes this part right now the candle holder is about seven and a half inches
tall so if you want it taller add more rings but keep in mind that if it's too
tall it will topple over without proper support maybe you can put popsicle
sticks in the backside or something like that next remove the mirror from this
set then trace it out on cardboard or foam board and cut it out I made two but
it really depends on how thick you want your base glue them together like this
and then glue the mirror on top
to decorate the sides I have some options here from Dollar Tree I have the
diamond wrap and the mirrored mosaic towns it's a perfect fit too but for my
craft stash I have this gorgeous rhinestone trim I bought from Amazon you
can check out the description box for all the materials and some helpful tips
so as you can see I cut the trim to size and eventually glued it in place next I
removed the plastic part from this pencil pouch I'm using it as faux glass
and you'll see what I'm talking about in just a few add a small circle of glue to
each ring and firmly press down I know I'm cutting here but I would wait until
the end glue the plastic down first and do all the trimming after
for this part a pair of small scissors would make this really easy but I don't
have any so I used my scissors at first and then I tried my x-acto and
that worked well but once I was done I had to trim again with the scissors
because the edges looked really rough and this is what it looks like and right
here I'm trimming those rough edges next I glued one acrylic gem in the center of
each ring just like this gorgeous right
and from this set I use the bottom part of a wineglass right side down I place
it at the top just like this and for an even fit I use
the hot glue nozzle to taper the sides after a few minutes the sides were gone
and it was a perfect fit then I just glued it in place
for the last step attached the base once you glue that oranges add your candle if
you want to see how I made this I'll show you really quick
I cut the same rhinestone trim to size and glued it to the Dollar Tree LED
candle this candle does have a wax like finish so you have to move fast because
the glue will slide off right above that I placed this beautiful decorative trim
that I bought from Amazon and again all the materials will be in the description
so I quickly moved in sections around the candle until I reached the beginning
this candle costs about 4 to 6 dollars to make which is really good because I
couldn't find any decorative candles like this in store
subscribe did you guys like that little insert let me know in the comments I'll
take it out if you don't like it
you
to create this vanity or wall mirror I started with a piece of cardboard in the
mirror from this 8 by 10 frame to create the new frame I measured one and a half
inches from the bottom but this part depends on how big you want the finished
product to be this one was about 13 and 3/4 tall by eleven and a half inches
wide next I tried to Center the mirror and create two equal sides I ended up
measuring a little under two inches for both sides and for the top I measured
the same distance as the bottom and I measured and trim some foil to cover the
frame this step is optional but I slightly crinkled the for you I really
like doing this because it adds a bit of texture and honestly you only need to
crinkle the sides but during the whole thing was easier for me
trim the cardboard to size and start gluing down the foyer I think at this
point I realized that I'm covering my dimensions so if you do this blue on the
opposite side
next I place the mirror for fittings and did some quick measurements to get
myself back on track I added glue to the center and place the mirror on top on
each side i layered the for you with adhesive Diamond wrap leaving three rows
of hang over and as you can see I didn't place any in the corners now to remove
the frayed edges I peeled back the paper and quickly passed it through a lighter
I added glue for extra support and place the diamond wrap on top I continued this
for all four sides and right here you can see how I glued the overhang to the
backside for the corners I created one row strips and glue them down I know I'm
showing you two here but it's not necessary one is enough
next using mirrored mosaic tiles create 12 3x3 diamonds just like this then lay
out your design for the sides I measured from the top and bottom to
create equal spaces and before gluing I use scrap paper as a marker
I removed the paper backing added glue and placed it down I repeated the same
steps for the middle and top one and I moved to the other sides since the front
is still flat I decided to add the hanging and hardware slightly pull back
on the unfolded paper clip add a generous amount of glue and place the
cardboard on top the next part I gave myself two options glue large gems in
the center of each diamond and place cluster gems in the corner like this or
use the acrylic gems after laying them both out this one was my favorite so I
placed one gem on each diamond and in the corners I added nine acrylic gems
I did add more glue in the gaps as needed
I just love the way this looks and to finish it off
I added larger gem and smaller ones in between
oh and this is a wax tool I bought a pack of six from Amazon I don't think
I'll ever use all six but you can always find all the materials I use in the
description box tell us which one was your favorite
wanna see more subscribe thumbs up this video share it with a friend and we'll
see you in the next one bye guys
