Small gifts are a nice attention for the guest at weddings, baptisms and round birthdays. If the gifts are also lovingly homemade, the guest will take home a very personal gift that will hopefully remind him/her of the celebration for a long time. In this handicraft instruction we show you how you can make beautiful tea lights with butterfly by yourself with only a few steps.
And it's that easy
To make the pretty presents for the guests you need small tea light glasses . If possible, these should be free of dirt or grease residues. When doing handicrafts it is therefore a good idea to have a cloth for polishing the glasses at hand.
For our sample tea light glasses we have used jute cord to decorate the glasses, Craft cardboard sheet, Vellum paper, Craft Punch with butterfly motif, Craft Punch with heart motif, half pearls, double-sided Adhesive tape, Satin ribbon and Lace ribbon . Of course you can adapt the Decoration material according to your taste.
To make the guest gifts, stick the Jute ribbon wrapped around the lower part of the glass with the hot glue gun. When working with the hot glue gun, make sure to remove any adhesive residues, otherwise they will be seen as unsightly residue on the clear glass. First of all the Satin ribbon and over it the Lace ribbon is attached with tape
When the basic decoration of the guest gift "Wind light" is done, the details will follow. Our example-Wind light is decorated with a universal "thank you" pendant. For this we cut pink-coloured Craft cardboard sheet to a DIN A4 format and printed the text on it. With the Motif Punch the Craft cardboard sheet is punched out afterwards in heart form As a great effect you can additionally punch Vellum paper with the Craft Punch and perforate the two hearts one above the other and wrap them around the Glass for tea lights on a jute cord
As a special eye-catcher our creative team has decided to use a butterfly scattering part. This is glued on with hot glue. On the body of the butterfly we have glued 2 half pearls, so the guest gift looks noble and festive at the same time
Due to the jute cord, the guest gift is wonderfully suitable for vintage-style weddings. Colours and motives can be varied according to your taste. You can choose the font on your computer and print it out A realistic, simple, but very effective handicraft work that will hopefully leave an impression on your guests.
We wish you a lot of fun with the implementation and later on your party!
