We moved into a new house last year, and I have been eager to make it feel like home. There is only so much painting and stenciling one can do at first, so in the meantime I am crafting little projects to give our space my touch. I fell in love with these wood candlesticks and decided they would be a nice way to add some interest to my master bathroom.
These candlesticks are so nicely made that I didn’t have to sand or prime them. Two coats of spray paint covered them nicely!
On the left, I simply tied a key charm on with some crinkled seam binding.
In the center, I made a flower topiary, this time by gluing fabric flowers on (see my other tutorial for more details).
To the right, I made a tulle flower and glued a resin cabochon to the center.
I spraypainted a mini birdcage to match and then glued it on with E6000.
On the left I adhered some lace to the bottom.

In the center and left I made two tulle “poofs” and tied them on.
On the right, I made a tulle bow and glued a paper flower to the center.
This is a quick project that helps make a big impact. They would also make lovely centerpieces.
What else could you do with them?
I hope I’ve inspired you to try your hand at a little home decorating!
