Make a Photo Candle Holder

Here's proof that your child's smile can literally light up a room-with the help of a battery-operated tea light.
Photo Candle Holder

  1. Choose a digital photograph that's horizontal (not vertical).
  2. Print it in black-and- white on an 8 1/2- by 11-inch sheet of plain vellum paper, available at craft and office supply stores.
  3. Wrap the vellum around a tall, cylindrical glass vase (we got ours at Michaels for $3) and adhere the overlapping edges with double-sided tape. Trim any excess paper.
  4. Put a battery-operated tea light inside the vase.
