Instructions

  1. Cut a circle or oval from cardboard or cardstock for the campfire base.
  2. If using, glue small pebbles or sand around the edge of the base for added texture.
  3. Tear tissue paper into flame-shaped pieces of varying sizes.
  4. Layer the tissue paper starting from the bottom with red pieces, then orange, and finally yellow on top.
  5. Glue all layers securely to the base, ensuring they stand upright.
  6. Position an LED tealight in the center of the base once the flames are dry.
