Pretty Little Ring Or Lipstick Holder

This project would make a lovely "Thinking of You" Christmas gift. It's very inexpensive to make and surprisingly EASY! It's a ring OR lipstick holder...you decide!
You can buy the glass votive holder at Walmart or Michael's for about a .50 cents. I then wrapped "Terrifically Tacky Tape" around the top and bottom rim of the glass. See how the glitter shows right through the glass? Next, I rolled the rim into some of Martha Stewart's ultra fine glitter in the color "sterling." Love that glitter! I tapped the glass and then rolled it again to make sure I thoroughly covered the entire jar. Allow the glitter to cure on the tape for at least a day. Then, you can take a soft paint brush or Kleenex and gently "clean up the glass."
I chose some scrapbooking stickers I found at Michael's. If you are making the holders into gifts, take into consideration the colors the person likes. This will help to really personalize it.
Below is another holder I made. I used some rub-ons of little chickadees they had at Michael's. They have some really cute designs for only .99 cents per package. Around the rim, I used Martha Stewart's ultra fine glitter in "Verdelite."
