A Set of Candlestick holders get an amazing new look... makeover time diy style

Remember my flea market candlestick holders?

An interesting mix of wood, metal, and glass... :0)
(and in need of a new look)

I started by getting my supplies I wanted to use all together...

I took the candlesticks apart (as they are held together with screws),

and gave the metal piece a new coat of shiny metallic silver paint.

I also painted the wood a beautiful turquoise..

and cut out some decorative damask print paper to modge podge onto the glass base, because

it shows through ever so slightly and I really liked that added touch.

Here is how they looked at this point, but I wanted to add some more embellishments,

so I got some shiny silver ribbon and some decorative accent pieces.

Cut the ribbon to fit around the wood and folded the edges..

A tiny dot of glue on the ribbon, then added the decorative accent.

Here is a look at the before/after...

and here they are on my vanity with some beautiful decorative candles...
