Burlap Hurricane Sleeve


 
Hello everyone!!  Here is a simple and easy to make (my favorite!!!) DIY fall craft to dress up your candles for fall.

DIY Burlap Hurricane Sleeve from Setting for Four #diy #tutorial #burlap



Materials:


  • 1 candle hurricane - I bought mine from the Dollar Store (I think its supposed to be a vase!)
  • 1 piece of burlap.  Cut width to whatever size you want - either to cover the hurricane completly or (like I did) a bit shorter to let the glass show on top.  Cut the length to 1 inch wider than the hurricane diameter.  You will have a rectangle.
  • Glue Gun and glue stick.
Tutorial:

Roll the burlap piece into a tube with short sides together and pin together so that you can test to see if the sleeve will fit over the hurricane easily.  If you make the tube too small you wont be able to get it to slide over the hurricane.  Hot glue the 2 shorter sides together so that one side overlaps the other. 

Slip on hurricane.

Enjoy.  That's it - simple and done!!

I love how it gives that natural touch to my living room and looks wonderful when the candle is lit!!
