DIY Glitter Battery Candle

I love Candles and have even taught candle making classes back in the day BUT since having children my view on them has changed. I was always terrified they would hurt themselves so as soon as they came along I swapped my candles for battery candles. I even have some remote ones I ordered from Santa last year, they lasted about 1 month because the kids kept flicking them on and off pretending they were Harry Potter. As my kids have got older I have considered using real candles more in fact I would love to make some of my own again but they other day my daughter asked if she could light a candle every night for a  Christmas countdown which would have been fine. Except my 4 year old got so excited about the “fire” and getting to “burn” the candle that is freaked me out and I hid all the matches  LOL.

So to cut a long story short – Why not decorate your battery candles for Christmas time. Glitter Battery Candle Tutorial.

How To Sew a Banner from felted wool sweaters

If you’re looking for a creative and sustainable craft project, look no further than the Upcycled Wool Felt Banner tutorial from Cucicucicoo. This DIY project is perfect for those who love working with fabric and want to give old sweaters a new life. It’s an easy way to make beautiful, eco-friendly decor while also recycling materials that would otherwise go to waste.

What I love most about this project is how customizable it is. Whether you’re using wool sweaters in soft neutrals or bold, vibrant colors, you can create a banner that perfectly suits your home decor or seasonal celebrations. The tutorial guides you step-by-step through turning old wool sweaters into felt, which is then used to make the banner pieces. It’s the ultimate upcycled project, giving you a chance to breathe new life into things you may have otherwise thrown out.

The process is easy to follow, and it doesn’t require a ton of supplies – just a few sweaters, scissors, a needle, and thread. Plus, this project doesn’t just make for beautiful home decor; it’s a wonderful activity for kids, especially when working with felt pieces.

This Upcycled Wool Felt Banner would be great for various occasions, such as fall, winter, or even holiday decor. You can hang it on the wall, drape it across your mantel, or add it to a wreath or as part of a festive display. It’s such a charming and thoughtful addition to any space.

I can’t recommend this tutorial enough for anyone looking to upcycle and make something beautiful out of old sweaters. It’s simple, creative, and so much fun to make!
