Last time I was in Michaels, I swear for just a couple of things, these brightly colored zip ties simply called out to me. I had no I idea what I wanted to craft with them, but I knew I could figure out something.

Zip ties can serve many purposes from binding cords together to attaching things together. I used them to turn ordinary white votive candles into cool modern ones.

Really, this isn’t a 15 minute craft idea, this is more like a 5 minute craft idea.

Simply zip on around a glass votive in your desired pattern, and them trim off the excess with a scissors.

You can easily move the “latch” part to create a stair step effect.

You can make so many different designs and patterns with them in seconds!

I love how they turned out. Best of all, they aren’t permanent. If you just want to add a little color these are perfect. If your mood changes, simply slide them right off!

Happy crafting!
