September 2020 Home Decor SU Style

 

Today's project is a home decor item.  Most of us use our paper for cards or scrapbooks, but pretty paper can dress up many things around the house too.  I wanted something simple and quick for my dining room table.

Today's project is an altered candle holder with a ring of paper leaves at its base.

Despite the fact that there's almost 2 dozen leaves on this project it actually went pretty fast. I think I completed it in under a half hour. There is a die to cut the leaves so that helped speed up the process.

Everyone needs a good leaf set and I like the versatility of Stampin'Up!'s Gather Together bundle

It actually took longer to crumple all the leaves than it did to cut them.  But of course crumpling them is what give it a realistic look. Otherwise it would just be layers of flat paper.

You can do this so easily with any candle stick and any color papers you have (the colors I used are listed at the bottom of this post). To provide a base for the leaves I cut a circle of cardboard with a hole in the middle and adhered the crumpled leaves to the cardboard filling in the gaps.

Add a little metallic bow to the top of the candle stick and voila!
Simple, sweet, seasonal and easy.
