First, I had a couple candles packed away in a box...nothing special, just the typical pillar candle - but they matched our new room, so I decided to spruce them up a bit! I had about 10 inches of beading left over from the lamp shade make-over, so I used that on the white candle. I simply painted the ribbon gray and pinned it around the candle - easy peasy! My other candle got some ribbon and a flower. 2 boring candles turned glam in 10 minutes!
Next on the list is a painting. I've had a canvas stacked in the back of the closet for well over 2 years now. I started a painting long ago, didn't like the direction it was going and tucked it away until I was more inspired. Yesterday, I suddenly had the urge to paint - so I dug out the half painted canvas and started painting. I didn't have anything particular in mind, except for that it needed to go above the bed in our room. Here's the finished product.
Please excuse the unmade bed - I never claimed to be the best housekeeper there is :)
