Painted Candle Sticks

I found these beauties at Goodwill.  I love the shape, the texture, the heaviness, and the difference of each one.  I just wasn't convinced I loved the color, so.......I painted them.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I gave a sneak peek during the Valentine Vignette post.
 
 
You can see all of the Valentine decor here.
 
 
I gathered my supplies and tackled that golden/brassy color by layering on the paint.  Here is what I used.
 
 
 
 
 
And here is how they turned out.
 
 
 
 
 
 








 
 


 
Now, they are more my style.
