I work in a lovely pub called The Swan in Cheltenham, its a wonderful place to work. We're having a music festival there this weekend it's called SwanFest...it's going to be super weekend and I can't wait!
My lovely boss asked me to make some lanterns out of glass jars and wire (given my crafty credentials) to go on the tables. I made the lanterns (much to my fingers distress) but couldn't resist adding a little something to them...what do you think?
I made 13 of them in the end but there will be more by the weekend...
I stuck the lace on with watered down PVA glue...I think they look quite lovely, and i hope that once there is a candle in them the light of the candle coming through the lace will look lovely.
P.S. The picture below proves that i don't just make Human Beans...
I also make ridiculous amounts of Warm Thoughts.
Jam jar lanterns are great and the added touch of lace is a brill idea x
ReplyDeletelove these!
ReplyDeleteThe jam jars look great. I love the 'warm thoughts' all cosy in the corner! Sue x
