autumn bucket list - halloween tea light holder



You'll need
- A jar
- Orange or Green paint
- Black card or paint
- Grey card/paint (Mine was meant to be Frankenstein but I ran out of time)
- A tea light

This one made myself because I'm such a big kid, It never came out how I planned but I'm still pretty pleased with it next time I'll make sure I'm not impatient and actually get everything in I planned to use :)

Bucket list - Making a autumn tealight holder

You'll need
- A jar
- Plenty of leaves
- PVA glue
- Gold glitter paint (optional) 
any extras you wish to add


After seeing a autumn tea light holder on pinterest I think it was I couldn't wait to give it a go with the girls. 
It's the perfect little thing to do this autumn it doesn't take up a huge amount of time and there's hardly any mess unless you wish to add some colour of course, I recommend to use the leaves shortly after you hunted them down, I grabbed some and left them for a few days but they ended being so dried out that they wouldn't stick to the jar at all, So today I grabbed some more on the way home from the school run and they stuck a whole lot better :)  Not only are these perfect for the autumn around the house (the idea is once a tea light is in the jar it will glow all the lovely autumn colours of the leaves) I grab as many colours & shapes of leaves as i can to add some variety. They also make the perfect hand made gifts for nanny/grandmas, aunties/uncles, grandads etc

BARGAIN Buy - Shabby Chic Tealight Holder



I've  gone abit mad for shabby chic lately so i couldn't help but grab this from my local poundland today (yes poundland) i've seen them a few times in there before but they were always sold out when i decided i actually wanted one so there was no way i was leaving it behind today, A very similar tealight holder to this can be found on ebay for £9.9O!! (the only real difference i can see is the iron being a little thicker)
