As mentioned before, my sister lives in an old 1890ish farm house so she can use beautiful rustic pieces that I can't always use in my decor. Having said that, I could put these beautiful candle holders anywhere in my house and they would look amazing! So here is my sister's first beautiful and extremely simple contribution to Full of Great Ideas. Thanks Carol!
Carol had an old kitchen table with legs five that she picked up at an auction. She cut the table down to make a beautiful hall table and in doing so she only needed 4 legs. Thus leaving her with one beautiful hand turned spindle that could not go to waste.
She cut the top off the spindle to make a flat surface and then cut the spindle into two staggered sizes.
She spray paint them black (or oil rubbed bronze) and when they were dry, she distressed them slightly with sandpaper.
Put some Dollar store candles and berries on the top and TA DA! Look what she made for $4!!!!
Aren't they beautiful? I only wish she had another leg so I could get a set of my own. I will just have to keep my eyes open at local thrift shops and on 'large' item garbage nights.
Thanks again Carol.
THese are so cool! I love them. Great Fall decor! Thanks for sharing.
