Holy water font

For this project, you will need:

• Small, unfinished wood tray or mosaic frame (found in the wood craft section of any arts and crafts chain)
• Unfinished wood cross
• Small, lightweight glass votive or tea light holder (for vessel)
• Acrylic craft paint
• Scrapbook paper for 

Decorating

• Any printed religious imagery
• Scissors or craft knife
• Glue stick 
• Polyurethane or clear acrylic spray
• Metal/jewelry/hobby cement or epoxy
• Picture hanging hardware

Paint the edges of the wood tray and let dry. Paint and decorate the wood cross and set aside. Trim and apply the scrapbook paper background on the inside of the tray (using glue stick). Using the cement/epoxy, affix the cross toward the top of the inside of the tray (leaving enough room for the votive/tea light holder at the base). Spray the entire decorated wood tray with polyurethane to add some sheen and protection. Let dry for 20-30 minutes. Apply the cement/epoxy to the back and bottom edge of votive/tea light holder and adhere to the bottom of the finished tray (as shown). Allow project to completely dry (before hanging on wall). Affix picture hanging hardware of choice on back of tray (toward the top) and hang near a doorway. You may wish to adhere a few glue dots or a tacky mounting strip on the back, so font doesn’t move on the wall.
