Using your glue gun glue two googly eyes to the top of the gauze where you want your eyes. 

 

 

Turn on your tea light and place inside the jar.

 

 

Just a note, make sure you use plenty of gauze so the little mummy candles are well covered. 

 

 

Now place them in any of your Halloween decorations.   Or they could be outside on the porch as Halloween luminaries.   It is best if you used tea lights but if you do use a candle, make sure the flame is lower than the top of the mummy candle holder.   It could catch on fire if not.
