Harvest Hurricane Glasses

Check out these beautiful, glowing hurricane glasses from Martha-the-Great (aka. Martha Stewart). They are a perfect, easy way to light up any room this fall - you can even make them yourself. Here's how!

 
What you'll need:

*Hurricane vases in various sizes 
*Tissue paper in assorted colors
*Tape
*Small votive candles

What to do: 

1. Cut 4 pieces of 20x26 inch tissue paper in half, crosswise. Lay it flat on a table, and make a 1-to-2 inch fold on the bottom of one piece.
2. Make a larger fold in the other piece, and fit it into the fold of the first piece of paper. Repeat this process with the remaining pieces of paper, making some folds thinner, and others wider.
3. Wrap the tissue paper around the hurricane glasses, and secure with tape. Place a votive candle in each (be careful the wick doesn't come in contact with the paper).
