Supplies
- Doilies
- Plastic Wrap
- Stiffy
- Glasses large enough to accommodate a tea light
- Bowl a disposable one works great
- Tea Lights real or battery operated
Instructions
- Start by covering the glasses you are going to use with plastic wrap.
- Pour the Stiffy into a disposable bowl. NOTE: You can pour any excess at the end back into your container and reuse it.
- Add your doily to the Stiffy and be sure to cover it completely.
- Then squeeze any excess from the doily. IMPORTANT: You do not want to wring out your doily as that may stretch it.
- Apply the doily to the bottom of the glass. Press the bottom to ensure it is flat.
- Then create pleats all around the outer edge to take up the excess material.
- Once happy with the shape, set aside to dry overnight.
- Then just remove from your glass and your doily tea light holders are complete.
