I love these DIY Leaf Candle Holders from My Fairy Dust blog! They're made using upcycled preserves jars, Fimo clay and acrylic paint. Wouldn't these make lovely homemade gifts? Find the tutorial to make your own here. Or repin this project here for later. For more great DIY projects be sure to follow my Jonesing for Crafts board on Pinterest!
