Craft instructions
Sometimes it doesn’t take much to come up with a really lovely craft idea! In just a few simple steps, you can turn empty Holle jars into cute little mummy lanterns that create a cosy, spooky atmosphere in the dark.
Wash the empty Holle jars thoroughly and leave them to dry.
Wrap white bandage all the way round the jars and, if necessary, secure it with liquid glue so that they look like little mummies.
Stick on googly eyes to give the little mummies a face.
Place an LED tea light inside and your homemade Halloween mummies will light up straight away!
These little lights make a great autumn decoration and give empty jars a new lease of life. Little craft enthusiasts can help out straight away with the wrapping, gluing and decorating.
Our tip
Using googly eyes of different sizes gives each mummy its very own character. Please use LED tea lights only and supervise children when they’re crafting with glass and small parts.
