NEW IDEA (Part 2)

Here I am , as promised in my previous post. ( see New Idea Part 1)
I went to the supermarket and among other things I bought the item that I needed ... a jar of yogourt! Naturally I only needed the glass jar. This kind of jar has no screw edge ( rim) and is exactly what I was looking for. My project is now ready for your comments but first here's how I made it.
Here are the items I used to make it.

Eccomi come avevo promesso nel post precedente. (vedi New Idea Part 1)
Sono andata al supermercato per fare la spesa e tra altre cose ho comprato quello che mi serviva per finire il mio nuovo lavoretto. Si tratta di un vasetto di Yogurt. Mi serviva soltanto il vasetto di vetro. Questo tipo di vasetto ha un semplice bordo regolare ... proprio come lo volevo. Adesso ho finito il progetto e aspetto i vostri commenti ma prima ecco come l'ho fatto.
Ecco le cose che ho usato per farlo.

I glued the rosette plates together as shown in the following picture.
I used super glue.
Come si vede nella foto che segue ho incollato i rosoni insieme.
Ho usato una colla a presa veloce.


This is what I wanted.
Questo รจ quello che volevo.


Next I put the glass jar on top to make a.........
Poi ho appoggiato il vasetto sopra per ottenere un......
Tealight holder.
Piccolo porta candelina.


Very quick and easy to make!
Isn't it pretty?
Molto veloce e facile da fare!
Carino, no?
