Welcome!

My name, Karin, was pretty common when I was growing up...just not the spelling. Unless you are of German heritage like I am. So, I have spent my entire life answering the question, "What is your name"?... With, "Karin...with an "i"! Who knew it would come in handy all these years later when I went to name my blog.

Mummy Votives

Good Morning!

This is not a card, but I made these after seeing something similar at the craft store around here.

I made them before vacation, and they have been on my table ever since...So cute!!!!

I used gauze torn into strips and wrapped it around two old votive candle holders I had. After securing it with glue, I took a brown ink pad (don't remember which brand!) and scummed up the material to make it look aged. I bought googlie eyes and used a glue dot on those to secure them. The craft store used tall cylinders for these, but I had these votive holders on hand and thought I would recycle, so in this case I am using the battery operated tea lights for safety. Thanks for the drop by and hopefully I will get to posting new stuff later in the week!
