Postage Stamp Tealights
"The other day I was sorting through my craft cupboard when amongst other things I came across a pile of used postage stamps. Also in the cupboard where some cute glass jars from fancy yogurt. I decided to combine the two and make these fun tealights. I could have sorted the stamps into countries or by subject matter but in the end I decided to go by color and create a rainbow of tealights. You can get remote controlled tealights which are great for this craft."
