Thrift Store Candelabras

Have you ever purchased anything that you intended to use for a project and then just let it sit around in your garage taking up valuable space? Story of my life…

Like these cheap candelabras that I just had to have.

I honestly had no good reason for buying them, and they taunted me for a long time from their perch in the garage. I just happened to pull out all my fall decorations and place a skull right next to them. Then it just clicked. All they needed was a good coat of paint.

Materials:

Thrift Store Candelabras

Black Gloss Spray Paint

Instructions:

I dismantled them and placed them in a cardboard box.

I sprayed them with a layer of glossy black paint.

Then I let them dry and reassembled them.

A few added candles and they’re a nice addition to my Halloween porch decorations.

I realize they will still take up valuable space in my garage, but I can stomach that fact so much easier when it involves Halloween. Best. Holiday. Ever.
