Do you see what I see???
I found all of this in one trip to Goodwill-3 ugly candlesticks, 2 real pewter cordial cups, and a milk glass vase. (Plus one 50 year old Standard rubber stamp holder with no rust!-not pictured) Score! That ugly orangish brown candlestick is like plastic. The other two are ceramic. Look what I made with them:
Recognize those candlesticks? No? That's cause I spraypainted 'em. Just a little trick I learned from my blog buddies: here. I guess it is hard to tell from the pictures, but there are glass hurricanes on top of the candlesticks. Inside are cards that spell out "HOP" (only three-letter Easter word I could think of-not cause I love the movie-haven't even seen it) and some crinkled up vintage dictionary paper.
More to come...
**editor's note (he-he that's me!): Sorry-you caught me-I forgot to say the letters were not stickers. At least not until I ran them through my Xyron sticker maker. I cut them out with my Making Memories Slice machine. The cardstock is also Making Memories-Passport collection (it is printed with postcards, but I liked the color scheme for Easter.) I already had the little feather boa. I think it came from Dollar Tree.
