How to do it Download the templates/recipes
1 (NB: Print and use the separate template for this idea for a waistband which fits the glass holders exactly). Draw with an oil pastel crayon on the watercolour paper. Here we have used a white crayon, but in principle you can use any colour.
2 Paint with watercolours and leave to dry.
3 Trim the watercolour paper and saturate it with plain cooking oil on the front and back. This allows the light to shine beautifully through the colours on the waistband. (NB: Several coats of cooking oil may be necessary).
4 Assemble and staple the waistband. Fit it around the candle holder.
