How To
Create Stamped Luminarias Luminaries are paper bag candle holders that are often used to decorate driveways or patios during the festive season or parties. Luminaries are traditionally made from paper bags that have had a pattern punched or pricked out of the paper. The candle light illuminates the paper and light from the candle twinkles through the holes. It is very simple to make your own luminary from craft paper. This is an ideal way to make your own customized luminaries using colored paper and decorated using your favorite rubber stamps. The stamped image forms a silhouette against the back lit paper background. Luminaries can be made in any size or with any colored paper. Paper luminaries are more for decoration than functionality and should never be left unattended. The bottom of the luminary should be weighted down with sand. Protect that candle further by popping it into a glass jar or candle holder before placing it inside the luminary. This luminary pattern has a fold over at the top which adds to the stability of the luminary. The luminary pattern is square, therefore the base and the sides are the same dimension. If you would like a different shape, simply customize the dimensions. Material Required

This project was created
using handmade paper bags and a solid stamped image.
ILLUS #2 Stamp and decorate the luminary as desired. (2
sides or all 4 sides.) In the Southwest, we use these paper lites for christmas
decorations to line sidewalks and driveways.... however they are just as
dramatic on Halloween night.
ILLUS #3 Draw a square bow with a pen, markers or dark
pencil and a ruler. Pricking out a design or punching shapes out
of the luminary will allow the candle light to shine through. Use a proper
paper pricker or improvise with a darning needle to prick out a pattern.
Put the paper onto craft foam or another soft surface, such as an old newspaper,
to help protect the work surface below.
ILLUS #4
To use the luminary, add a couple of inches of
sand, gravel or even cat litter to give weight to the luminary and to stop
it from blowing over. Place a tea light into a glass candle holder and
place into the luminary. Use the luminary to light a driveway or to give
added atmosphere to an outdoor or night time party.
