Turn a Candle into Cinnamon Spice Candle

Buy a candle then create your own rustic, homemade-look cinnamon coated candle.

And, it will burn safely because the acrylic is water base.

So easy!

WHAT YOU NEED:
Candle - any size or color
Acrylic paint in brown hue
Paint brush
Candle holder to hold the candle while it dries
Ground cinnamon, nutmeg, clove or other ground spice

INSTRUCTIONS: Paint the candle, put into candle holder and let dry. Don't get carried away with brush strokes, pressing hard on the brush or repeatedly going over the wet paint.

Add a thick, heavy second coat.

While it's still wet, begin sprinkling the cinnamon over the candle.

Be sure to turn the candle once one side is covered and continue until the entire candle is coated in the spice.

Let dry.

That's it! That's all there is to this simple tutorial to create your own cinnamon spice covered rustic candle.

Acrylic Painted Primitive Country Christmas Snowman Screens

Grab a window screen, your acrylic paints and set to work creating primitive snowmen painted screen decorations.

Original designs but you're welcome to use the idea.

These are for sale at Glasgow Trading Post, Missouri.

Top left: Three happy snowmen in assorted hats and scarves in different colors.

Center left: Snowman in black top hat and blue scarf with snowflakes and the word "snow".

Bottom left: "Welcome" sign with snowflakes and cute snowman in a green scarf.

The three painted screens hang with eye screws and picture hanging wire.

Note: Be sure to drill holes with a bit that is smaller than the actual screw. This process keeps the wood from splitting. Old wood is brittle.

Acrylic paints were used then each screen was sprayed with a clear, protective coat that helps retard the paint from chipping.
