What you will need
- X-Press It Deco Tape
- X-Press It Foam Mounting Tape
- Empty jars
- Card
- Scissors
- Pencil
- Craft knife
- Tealights
How to do it:
Cover your jar with any X-Press It Deco Tape you like! We chose pastel colours.
Next, cover one side of a piece of card with Deco Tape.

Fold the card in half with the Deco Tape facing inwards. Draw a butterfly wings shape on the card.
Use your scissors to cut out the butterfly wing shape.

Place a foam mounting square on the back of your butterfly and adhere the butterfly to your jar.
Place your tealight in the jar. If you are putting the tealight holder in a child's room, we recommend using a battery operated tealight.
As an alternative idea, you could try wrapping your jar in Deco Tape and using a craft knife to carefully cut out a shape, revealing a glowing tealight inside.

As you can see, X-Press It Deco Tape is a versatile supply that can be used to bring any craft project to life. Whether you're a crafting enthusiast or just casually interested in it, this project will add a unique touch to your home decor that will impress anyone who sees it.
