Luminarias
These paper-bag luminarias channel the bandanna via their flowery cutouts and two-tone color scheme. 

For each luminaria, you'll need a red and a white paper bag of the same size (they can be big or small). Using scallop scissors, trim 1 to 1 1/2 inches from top of white bag. (Or you can cut a free-form pattern with scissors.) Use decorative craft punches and a Japanese hole punch to cut a repeating pattern through the bag while it is still folded. Trim 1/2 inch from top of red bag. Unfold the bags, put the red into the white, and pour in gravel for weight. Place a votive candle inside, checking that the sides of the candleholder extend past the flame.
