Instant wow with yarn

Colorblocked candles

Wrapping twinklers in bold bands of yarn is an easy way to brighten up a dark corner. TO DO: Glue one end of a long length of turquoise yarn to the bottom of the candle, then wrap the yarn around the candle until you have a band that’s about 1⁄2 inch thick. Snip and glue the end of the yarn to the candle. Repeat with fuchsia and turquoise yarn until the lower half of the candle is covered. Note: When the candle is lit, be sure to cut off and remove all yarn before the flame reaches it.
