Summer Mantle and Coffee Filter Light Tutorial

I finally jumped on the coffee filter project bandwagon

and I am pleased with my results! 

This project was super cheap and easy...

Wanna make one? Here is what you'll need:

I got the LED light from IKEA, and reused a lid from Coldstone Creamery. 

First, make a "pocket" on the back of the lid using packaging tape.

I folded a piece of tape in half, cut it to size and stuck it inside, 

so that the inside isn't sticky.

Now, put the pencil eraser in the center of 2-3 filters at a time and fold it down over the pencil as shown:

Repeat with all the filters.

Glue them onto the plastic lid using hot glue.

Glue the short piece of ribbon into a loop on the back to hang it on.

Tuck the LED light into the tape pocket.

You're finished! Now find a good spot to display it on a tack!

Our new kitten, Simon thought he'd join the photoshoot! :)
