OMG...Girl, I love your version of the big, chunky candleholders...in fact, I like them much better! Can you even imagine spending $149 on a candleholder? Your's at $4.99 just makes them much sweeter!!! You know, I have a few of those brass candleholders...kind of out dated...but I can't just get rid of them. Cindy over at Applestone Cottage also spray painted hers...I never thought about doing that! I guess the paint adhers to the metal fairly good? I want to give mine a new look! <br /><br />Ohhh Girlfriend, I love your little table...can't wait to see what you do with it! <br /><br />Warmest wishes and Happy Fall!<br />ChariChari at Happy To Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05475994012652473793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-369681864114551968.post-46523436373318288762009-10-01T13:34:18.956-05:002009-10-01T13:34:18.956-05:00Your candlesticks look better than the PB ones...g...Your candlesticks look better than the PB ones...great deal on them, too!Marigenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00313503976938859618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-369681864114551968.post-80256234349527900012009-10-01T10:38:02.102-05:002009-10-01T10:38:02.102-05:00BJ you are a woman after my own heart!

You go girl, they are a great match for the high dollar ones. In fact I had to really study them to see that they were the brass ones. I'm not kidding. I thought you broke down and bought a pair. Now, what are you going to do with that cute table? Work magic, I am sure. <br /><br />I have learned to be so much more thrifty when I read your blog. I love that about you my sister friend. Retirement is such a pinch on the budget. No frivolous spending here anymore, but just look what we can do. You inspire me.<br /><br />Hugs and love, Jeanne<br /><br />PS, don't miss my post today. I think you will love it.
