Candle Stick Makeover

So I have this set of candlesticks that I've had for years and go really well with my collection with tapa cloths, but I needed a quick decor fix for Aaliyah's room.

Enter a sheet of music, glue, scissors, existing candle, some annie sloan paint, sandpaper and annie sloan wax.

Finished candle makeover .. of course, never to be lit ...

All 3 all together

Candlesticks with the new candles
The colour of choice is Paris Grey and think the finished product looks great.  Aaliyah wasn't convinced of the music sheet over the candles, but once put in place, she agreed they look fabulous!  Of course, these candles are only for decorative purposes therefore won't be lit in any way.

Happy living peeps!
