The 10 Cent Tea Light Photo Holder

I ran across this great little project from atelier v. {via Photojojo} this morning. The project could be used for seating cards, pictures, and table numbers. The metal bases can even be painted if brushed silver just isn’t your thang.

If you haven’t been to Photojojo yet, rush over there right away. They have great DIY projects that can be used for weddings and an abundance of tips for taking great pics.

    I love this idea, but when I go to the website it doesn’t have directions. How do you create this place holder?

    Casey, here are my directions for it…

    1. Remove candle from the tin tea light cup.
    2. Using tin snips or very sharp shears, cut a line down either side of the cup, to the bottom.
    3. Fold the cup outward (inside out?) until the halves meet.

    Here’s the photo from the atelier v site. It makes it a little clearer: http://www.atelier-v.ch/umdenken/sites/18.html
