All you’re going to need are a nicely curved glass that has enough space for a candle in it, paper towels, white glass paint, crystal glass paste and a thin stick.
Clean your glass with a paper towel. Make sure there is no dirt left on it.
Make a sketch of the pattern you want to use on the glass on a paper. You can also design it by heart in the meanwhile. Try to use plant motives and Christmas symbols.
Hold the glass in front of you and copy the pattern you drew on it carefully using the glass paint.
When the painting is done, wait a few hours until it dries completely.
Take the crystal paste and with the help of a thin stick fill in the patterns taking care not to go out of contour lines. As a major part is covered, touch only the top and bottom parts or put your hand into the glass in order not to ruin your fresh lines.
As soon as the paste is dried, light a candle and drop it into your new lampion.
Place it onto a table and turn off the lights. Enjoy the sight! Put one in each room in your house and feel the magical frosty atmosphere during the holidays.
You can try out other colors and variations befit winter as well as make a whole set.
