"Snow" Covered Candle Holder

My Mom loves candles and I saw this candle holder on Pinterest and a lightbulb went off.

To make this candle holder you need:
Mod-Podge (Homemade version here.)
Candle Holder
Large Plate
Epsom Salt
Paint Brush

First pour the Epsom Salt onto the large plate. Grab the candle holder and using the paintbrush, apply a layer of the glue mixture onto the candle holder. Then sprinkle the Epsom Salt onto the glue.

I put a layer of glue on the bottom, added the salt, then painted the middle, added the salt, and finally the top and rim. It is a very straightforward process. Just be sure not to touch the outside edges or you will have to do touch-ups later.  Also don't worry about ruining the paintbrush. It washed right out under warm water. You will be fine as long as you don't let the glue dry on the paintbrush. This only took me 10 minutes to do.


 I thought it turned out very well and definitely will be making more.
