Creating Felt Tea Light Glass Holders

Start Making The Felt Tea Light Glass Holders

Step 1: Create the Motif

Enlarge the templates by the amount that fits the tea light glasses you have and copy the shapes onto tracing paper. Apply spray mount adhesive to the reverse of the stepped motifs and glue them onto the blue felt. Carefully trace around the motifs with a fine-tipped gel pen to create precise outlines. Remove the template and cut out the motif using embroidery scissors.


Step 2: Make the Holder

Transfer the tea glass template onto the reverse side of the turquoise felt and cut it out. When you reach the handle, fold the felt strip to cut both handles together, ensuring they are identical. Lay the strip flat with the right side up and position the top part of the stepped motif centered along the edge of the felt.

Mark the start and finish points with two pins. Apply white glue to the reverse of the motif and attach it to the felt strip, using the pins as a guide. Repeat this process to attach the bottom part of the motif so that the points align. Allow the glued felt to dry for about an hour.

Step 3: Decorate the Edges

Once the glue is dry, use metallic stranded cotton and a long running stitch to join the two layers of felt together, working close to the edge along the top and bottom edges of the motif. Add a matte gold bead between each running stitch along both edges. Sew turquoise beads onto the points of the top and bottom motifs using turquoise thread.


Step 4: Assembly

Wrap the holder around the tea glass and mark where the stitching will go using a pin. The holder should fit snugly around the glass. Secure it with a running stitch in turquoise thread, then sew turquoise beads along the stitching line on each side. Use a fine-tipped paintbrush to dot gold fabric glue around the outside edge of each handle. Allow it to dry for at least one hour.



Congratulations! You have completed the felt tea light glass holders. These felt tea light glass holders will add a wonderful interior design detail to your home and make a lovely gift for a friend.
