Holiday Candle Transformation For Your Booth or Home

These candles were a good seller in my booth last year, so I thought I would share the idea.

These plastic candle sticks are readily available this time of year in thrift stores. 

Quite a motley crew of ugly candle sticks, just waiting for a good scrubbing and some paint.

Here's the big tip!  These plastic candles are very light weight and flimsy.  To make them sturdy I filled them with grout.

A small box of grout cost $5-6

And covered it with felt

OK, let the fun begin!  Time to decorate any way you choose, in any color, with bling, lace, ribbon, or flowers.

This is a fun and easy project.  I sold them in my booth last year for $6 -8 Each.  I forgot to add glitter, that would have looked good! 

 Any other ideas?

Happy Creating!!!
