DIY Heart Lantern + Spring MUST HAVES!

DIY Heart Lantern  

     Hey guys! It's already April! YAY! In honor of spring, I thought I would do a DIY post on how to make a colorful and cute glitter heart lantern to brighten up your room! I will also make a list on some Spring must haves below so be sure to check that out! The DIY lantern is super cute and really easy to make! in fact, if you have all the right materials you may be done in less than a half hour! Now let's start our spring party!
Ignore the valentines day part! These can be used year round!

Materials

  • Empty glass jar
  • Flameless LED candles
  • GLITTER!!!!!!!!!! [ any color you choose (spring colors work best)]
  • Sticky back paper
  • Spray glue 
  • Marker or pencil
  • Scissors
  • Colorful beads or gems

10 steps to sucess!
  1. Outline a heart on the non sticky side of your sticky back paper
  2. Carefully cut the heart out and peel off the backing revealing the sticky side of the paper
  3. Stick the heart on to the inside of the jar
  4. Using your spray glue, evenly coat the inside of the jar with a coat of glue
  5. Pour a generous amount of glitter into the jar and screw the lid back on
  6. Shake the jar so that the glitter can evenly coat the inside
  7. Unscrew the lid of the jar and dispose of any excess glitter 
  8. Using a pencil, peel the sticky back paper off to reveal a heart shaped area on the jar that is NOT coated in glitter
  9. Fill the jar about a quarter of the way up ( or however much you prefer) with pretty beads and place a flameless candle on top to create the lantern like effect
  10. Repeat this process as many times as you like to create many beautiful lanterns for your room or as gifts for other people
