These are 2 candle holders I made and would like to share with you all.
If you would like to give it a go, I'll tell ya how
1- take 2 glass tumblers and paint them with glass paints (found in most craft stores) in red and yellow to give a nice back ground color and bake as directed.
2- get some nice black paper or thin craft paper and trace some nice silhouettes down.
3- use an exacto style knife or a good precision knife to cut out your designs.
4- use a modge podge type glue or varnish to adhere your cut outs to the glass. Be sure to pre arrange them so you don thave to move them around later!
5- Once dry, give your tumblers a nice coat of modgepodge or if you intend on washing them later on use an epoxy resin to coat your creation.
the resin is by far the better option. It take a little more time because yoyu have to mix the two liquids and let it dry for a number of hours but they are more durable and waterproof once done.
6- light candles inside and enjoy the creepy glow- Voila!

And the angles, all pallid and wan,
uprising, unveiling, affirm
That the play is the tragedy "Man"
and its hero the Conqueror worm.
