Make your own pumpkin tea light holder by following this easy guide!
1. Grab your DAS air dry clay and make a ball and smooth it out! It doesn't have to be perfect because we're going to shape it more, and pumpkins have lumps and bumps naturally! *make sure you seal your bag of clay back up so the rest doesn't dry out!*
2. Have some water near by to add as the clay starts to get a bit dry as you work with it. Begin making a small dip in the middle where the tea light will go. You can keep the tea light in place to work around it by adding more clay in coils to bulk the sides up.
3. Take a knife, or any thin tool to add the grooves of the pumpkin. Go in with a thicker tool (like the handle of a paint brush) to deepen the grooves and round/smooth them out.
4. Set your pumpkin aside to dry for 24 hours.
5. Mix your colours to paint your pumpkin! I mixed a variety of colours to give my pumpkin some depth.
6. Let your paint dry and add your tea light back in to add to your cozy autumn aesthetic!
