2. Dip them in the liquid starch and apply them, overlapping, onto the side of the glass or jar.

3. Sprinkle them with glitter while the starch is wet, and let them dry completely.

4. Glue any other decorations you want onto the outside of the container.

5. Put the tea candle inside, attaching it to the bottom with a little bit of melted wax.
