Broken Glass Candles
Color changing glass candle holders.
Supplies Needed
You will need these supplies:
-broken glass (preferably windshield type glass since it breaks more into chunks instead of shards. I had kept two plastic shopping bags of glass when a patio table top broke)
-glass containers (available at any craft store)
-empty clear glass votive holders (I got mine at hobby lobby)
-battery operated votives (these are rechargable color changing that my friend gave to me. they can be found here )
-work gloves to protect your fingers from glass

Filling the Holders
1) Fill the holders with glass.
2) When almost fill insert empty votive holder and fill in around sides with glass
3) I filled the bottom of my empty votives with a bit of the broken glass to make taking the rechargeable candles in and out.
4) Insert candle upside down in votive.
5) optional: line the underside of the lid with paper to hide the ugly candle bottom.
