CANDLE MAKOVER

I am ready to give my mantle a new look.                        


BEFORE

 I was sitting in my living room looking at my fireplace mantle and decided it was time for a quick make-over. So, I thought of a fun way to change the look. I decorated my candles with paper and ribbon and changed the color of my candle holders with craft paint. This was an easy way to transform my fireplace mantle decor.

 Grab double sided tape, a paper cutter, decorative papers and ribbon. Cut the papers to different widths and layer them to create a design you like. Now tape the paper layers together at the back of the candle. Tie a fun ribbon for extra embellishment if you want. Since my candles are the plastic flame less, I can just take this design off and change up the look whenever I want.

For re-decorating the candle sticks, I just used craft paint and lightly brushed the paint over them for a new look. EASY!
