Home Improvement Store Projects
The surrounding of this mirror was made using cavity cap (used when pouring cement). Flea Market Trixie shows how she made it at her blog. Go HERE. Isn't this stunning?This wood gate screen is amazing by Funky Junk Interiors. This looks great in front of a big window or as a room divider. See how it was made by going HERE.

Faux Candles
Link Party Still Going On!!! Check Them Out!!!
These are just going to look great any where!! I wish I could find some so that I could be cool like Miss Mustard Seed. I just love the look of these, so big!! Check out the inspiration on the left and the creation on the right...I think I like the ones on the right much better!! Check these out HERE!!
I could not resist these over at Dollar Store Crafts, they use paraffin wax and a balloon to make this awesome decoration!! All of this done at the Dollar Store for under $5!! Make sure you check out their suggestions also, they recommend using electric tealights instead of regular candles since this is just wax and could possibly melt. There were some other awesome candle ideas there so be sure to browse around for a while after you look at this project HERE!!
Candlestick Categorically Crafting Show
Let's see a few beauties I have found!!! These candlesticks are lovely now, but you must see the "before" picture! Very....interesting and patriotic. See them at 1 Talented Family. Go HERE.
Stunning!!! That's all I can say about this display of candlesticks!!! It wasn't like this before. See this makeover at Organize and Decorate Everything! Go HERE.
If you are looking for something tall (to fit in a corner or next to a fireplace or wherever), then you should see these tall DIY candlesticks at How To Be Awesome. (These could also be made shorter.) Go HERE. You can also see some similar chunky candlesticks at Life as Lori. Go HERE.I definitely can't have a candlestick round up without including some that are blue/turquiose! These are hot (or maybe I should say cool.) Love the color. Find the before pictures at Ramblings From the Sunshine State. Go HERE.
Please join your crafty post if, and only if, it corresponds with the category and theme of CANDLESTICKS!!! (If it doesn't fit in this category, please link it up to Whatever Goes Wednesday.) Link up crafts, decor, sewing projects, food, tips, etc, that has to do with CANDLESTICKS! If you have a lot of CANDLESTICK projects, please choose your favorites.

Make sure you go see all of the pictures HERE!! I will leave you with a few more photos just be sure to hold you mouth away from the keyboard, we don't want you to have to get a new keyboard!
