Cheap and easy way to decorate with for the 4th of July! Thanks to Martha Stewart for always having great holiday idea! This can even be done with the kids, very simple.

Supplies:

Red, White, and Blue sand

Clear glasses

White votive

Funnel

Directions:

To make a sand candle, fill a clear drinking glass with enough sand so that a votive candle placed on top falls just below the rim. Set the glass inside a clear glass vase or jar. With a funnel, fill the gap between the two containers with layers of colored sand, using enough to reach the rim of the drinking glass.
