These sharply angled vases and candles are by far the coolest Mother's Day DIY gift I’ve seen. You can create these beautiful asymmetrical candles and vases by following a few basic instructions. The entire process will take around two hours, but the end result will be worth it. It’s possible to yield four insanely unique creations at a time. Very simple and less than $10 in cost, these modern decorations are perfect for any gift-giving occasion.
To make these items, first download and print the desired template from the website. Follow the folding instructions and seal the edges with glue and a coat of latex paint. After the moulds are dry, you can fill them with either wax or concrete depending on your desired outcome. Allow the contents in the moulds to dry and remove the card stock. Once removed, you'll be left with beautiful geometric candles to give to your loved ones.
