Cornhusk Votives and Vases

I’m excited that I finally worked with corn husk. Indian Corn with its dried cornhusk is a like a symbol of fall. I {love} it! The use of dried cornhusks seems limitless. Wreaths, cooking, decor and so much more!

This simple DIY Cornhusk Votive (and vase) tutorial can be used for a festive addition to your tablescape as a centerpiece or a decorative accent to your fall decor. An easy, simple and perfectly ‘fall’ tutorial. Oh, and did I mention easy? Let’s grab a few supplies and get to work.

Supplies Needed:
Dried Cornhusks
Scissors
Votive Holders
Canning Jars (for vase)
Brown Ribbon (or color of choice)

Cornhusk Votives and Vase Tutorial:
Take two-three dried cornhusks and stand upright along the sides of the votive/vase, overlapping to ensure the glass is covered. I attempted using double sided-tape, but didn’t have much success. Keep your ribbon close by and pre-cut. While holding the corn husks in place with one hand grab your ribbon and tie tightly around the vase/container. I then trimmed the corn husk along the rim of the votive/vase. Finish by tying with a ribbon. And we’re done — with these lovely cornhusk votives and vase.
