Repurposed Tea Light Candle Holders
When you save everything, you are bound
to go looking for it some day.
That's the way I felt when I saved the little lamp shades from a string of outdoor lights when they burned out.
These little steel beauties were bound to be useful one day!
And today is that day!
I painted 2 boards both 18" long with white paint.
Using not one, but 2 of my favorite stencils, I stenciled a simple design on each board.
The red grain sack stencil is from Old Sign Stencils by Funky Junk Interiors and the 3 blue stars stencil is from Vintage Sign Stencils by Knick of Time.
Both of these ladies create fabulous stencils and I'm honored to represent both of them.

I coated each board with a coat of Rust-Oleum Antiquing Glaze (affiliate link) to give the boards a vintage look.
Each steel shade was then screwed into the board and a tea light was dropped inside.
These lights make the most beautiful designs on the wall!
