How to do it
1 Place 4-6 layers of tissue paper inside a folded piece of paper when using a paper punch, making sure there is paper above and below the tissue paper.
2 Now punch out tissue paper shapes with a paper punch which is ideal for this project when choosing a simple design. The paper prevents the thin tissue paper from getting stuck in the paper punch, so
remember the paper each time you punch out tissue paper.
3 Attach the pieces of tissue paper onto the candle holder using decoupage lacquer. You may use a flat Gold Line brush. Remember to cover the entire decorated surface with a coat of decoupage lacquer at the end. Leave to dry.
4 Fix the candle holder in a household oven for 30 minutes at 160°C, which sets the lacquer so that it can be wiped with a damp cloth. You may decorate the candle holder with cord and beads etc.
