Choose a large heart sticker and place the sticky side on a piece of fabric or on your pant leg before putting it on the glass. This will make the stickers easier to remove from the glass when you are finished. Take the glass ivy bowl and apply a large heart sticker in the middle of the bowl. Using a cosmetic sponge, dab the bowl with the white paint. When that dries, take the sticker off. The glass should be clear. Paint small red hearts at various places on the bowl.<\/p>\n<p>Now take the glass votive and do the same thing with the stickers. Put them on a piece of material or your pant leg first, before putting them on the votive. Place the stickers on the glass votive at various locations. You can make a pattern if you&#8217;d like to. Dab a piece of the cosmetic sponge into the red paint and cover the whole thing. If you want to make the votive pink, just add a little bit of white paint to the red. Let it dry and peel off the stickers.<\/p>\n<p>These two candle holders are beautiful when lit.
