i so loved candles and when they came a-plenty, some need holders so i can display them better and i don’t have a penny for new ones. instead, i rummaged through the storage and i found indeed some stuffs which i did turned into something useful.
these were stuffs i discarded out of an old chandelier i am currently "revamping"
i attached ornaments to this brass wires that i planned to re-varnish later
what do you think of these crystal-like plastic ornament?
i secure these crystal-like glasses using glue. can you even imagine they were all part of a big chandelier?
now, i glued some pink flowers around my candle. i decided not to overdo the brass holder itself to create a distressed and somehow antique look. did it?
now, i have my candle holder out of an old chandelier with zero dollar spent. and, BEHOLD, a PINK CANDLE!
MY FIRST ENTRY FOR TODAY’S

Happy Pink Saturday Sweetie…
What a beautiful share. I love how you saved so many pieces and then was able to recycle them into a gorgeous candle holder. I love the little prisms from the chandelier. They look so elegant. The brass base almost looks like a spider with long legs, but I love it. An excellent architecture.
Thank you for sharing with me today. I so enjoyed my visit. You have given me a few ideas of what I might be able to do with some bits and pieces of projects that I have as well.
Country hugs, Sherry
