I love yard sales. I don't always get to go every weekend which is probably a good thing, cause I would end up broke, and with all sorts of stuff in my house. I have found some awesome finds in my time and each and every one of them is a treasure to me.
Here is one of my most recent finds, which I got for next to nothing. Not the most attractive candleholder but you really need to look beyond what you see when you are looking for items.
As you can see it's the most hideous colour of brown or is it rust....I can't really tell lol.
What I like about it is the designs on it. I wanted something simple and I really liked the carvings on it. I just didn't like the colour but, that is so easy to fix.
So, what I did was I looked around in my box of goods to be able to fix this and found some white paint and, I tell you what a difference that makes. I just love it now. It's simple and clean-looking.
And it works so much better with the rest of my decor.
If you have any questions or comments let me know. Would love to hear from you.
