Create a warm and peaceful glow bottle lantern using simple materials to brighten your space and foster mindfulness.
Ingredients
- Clean glass bottles (various shapes)
- Battery-operated tealight candles or string lights
- Clear craft glue or mod podge (optional)
- Fine or chunky glitter (your favorite colors)
- Acrylic paint (optional for added color)
- Small decorative elements (like dried flowers or tiny stones, optional)
Instructions
- Start by choosing a clean glass bottle, noticing the way it feels in your hands.
- If you’d like, pour a small amount of acrylic paint into the bottle and swirl it gently.
- Let the paint dry completely.
- Once dry, pour a layer of glitter into the bottle and swirl it to create an even coating.
- If adding dried flowers, tuck them into the bottle now.
- Place a battery-operated tealight candle at the base of the bottle.
- Finally, close your lantern or leave it open, turn on the tealight, and watch the glow.
