These summer tea light jars are colorfully designed with crackle mosaic. The small fragments of glass make the candle glow beautifully in the dark. Learn how to create your own lantern here.

Preparation

Before you start working with Crackle Mosaic tiles, protect your hands from cuts by wearing work gloves, because the small mosaic particles sometimes have very sharp edges.

Before you open the Crackle Mosaic package, bend it back and forth so that the material inside breaks into small pieces. Fill these pieces into a small container.

Design with mosaic tiles


Now spread some mosaic glue on the tealight glass surface, wait about 10 minutes for the glue to flash off and get the perfect adhesive properties. Now take up the individual mosaic particles with tweezers and place them piece by piece, in small areas (so that nothing gets dirty) on the tea light glass, until the entire surface is filled with the stones.
Once the mosaic tiles are firmly fixed on the glass, mix the mosaic grout with a little water according to the package instructions to a creamy mass. Spread the mass with a soft brush between the individual tiles and let it dry.

Finally, wipe the surface with a slightly damp sponge to remove excess grout. Allow everything to dry thoroughly, place a tea light in the jar and enjoy your new summer decoration.
