Frosted Mason Candles!!

January 17, 2011 By


Want to see what I did with my vinyl??

They have this awesome vinyl as you know and now they have frosted vinyl!!
LOVE it!!
I decided to use it in my living room.  I have some mason jars I use as candle holders on this great old chippy stool.  I thought that I could shanty them up a bit using my new frosted vinyl!!
I used a frame shape and added a number to each of them using the Silhouette software.  You can easily download the software…Whoop!!
Then I let the machine do just about everything else!
My only job was peeling and sticking.  Here are the results!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oooh!  I LOVE it :-)
So simple!  And the best part is that you totally avoid all the etching creams and paints you use to get the same look!

    beautiful project…I love how subtle it is and yet it is so THERE and a wonderful touch.

    So cute!! I am definitely going to try that. I love the look of etching but really couldn't be bothered with the etching paste. Thank- you so much!!

    Wow! Just by doing something like that, it adds flare to a dull material. This is really great.

  • Kaitlin

    Thank you so much! I was borrowing my sister-in-law's to try it out and since you posted this deal my husband said I could get my own now instead of waiting for a gifting time :)

  • Dana @ CookingAtCafeD

    Very pretty. The numbers give it just a bit more, but don't mess with the simplicity of the candle.

    i got some of this vinyl for xmas–now, i know what to do with it:) tfs!

  • Amber Meadows

    I just ordered my Silhoutte – thanks so much for posting the great deal!

  • Kimberly

    I do not have a silhouette machine, but would like to use the vinyl and simply cut it by hand. If I were going to do this specific project would I have to order anything in addition to the frosted glass vinyl?

    Thanks for the wonderful idea!

    where do you buy frosted vinyl

    • http://www.thinkingcloset.com/ Lauren @ The Thinking Closet

      Silhouette America sells frosted vinyl! In fact, there’s a huge sale right now with 25% off using a special code. Shanty2Chic might have one…if not, you can use the code CLOSET. Love frosted vinyl!
