1.) Heat up glue gun and put in glue.

2.) Take your leaves and apply a small amount of glue at the base of each one (leaving the stems on for now) and attach to the cork board, one at a time. Be sure to alternate colors so that reds, yellows and greens are spread out all around and leave an opening in the center large enough for the tea light to sit in.

3.) Trim off the stems once the glue has hardened.

4.) Set tea light down into center of the leaves.

5.) Glue two or three acorns together to create a bunch effect.

6.) Glue the bunch on one side of the tea light (not to the tea light, use the tea light just for spacing.

7.) Glue the remaining single acorn or pair of acorns to the opposite side.

8.) Now the leaves will dry out and curl up a little as time goes on, so be careful when lighting
the tea light to not leave it completely unattended.

That's it! A pretty tea light holder, made for less than a dollar!
