Sister # 4 went antiquing for me last week. She called to tell me she had found a set of three large candlesticks at an antique mall close to her. I have four now, but I wanted to add some more to the mix. She went after work and grabbed them up for me and even got a discount!!! I don’t have them yet, but she sent me photographs.
They are some type of heavy plaster.
The largest one is a whopping 29” tall.
Are these bases incredible or what?
As Paula Deen says, “I can’t hardly wait”…to get them here!
Thank you, Janna!
I am joining the linky parties at “Southern Hospitality” and “Coastal Charm”.
*************
This next project is going to the parties at “Between Naps On The Porch”
and “Underneath The Table & Dreaming”.
I showed you this pretty piece of decorative crown molding a few days ago.
A few of you tried to guess what it was going to be,
but no one got it exactly right.
Don’t laugh at my construction! I used bits and pieces of wood we had on hand.
And, the wood we had on hand was not the perfect pieces!
But, I made it work.
The hardest part of this project was cutting the pieces to fit the contour of the ends.
Can you tell what it is yet?
G-Man doesn’t like the fact that I love power tools so much.
He always wants me to tell him when I am using them.
It makes him nervous! : - )
Yep, that’s me and my b-o-b (big ole boo-tay)
and my trembling arms trying it on for size.
As you can tell by now it’s a bed crown and I will show you the end results soon.
