Juxtaposition

Do you like mixing things that are not traditional?

Toile with twigs?

Lace and burlap?

Roses and Rudbeckia?

If you don’t, you may not appreciate the project I did over the weekend……actually in 15 minutes. I saw something similar in a magazine, of course……this is not an original idea ….. just my spin on it.

This was the beginning…..tarnished silver and large pottery mugs. The magazine had a painted candelabra and teacups…..very cute.

And this was my result…..

I am planning on using these for serving small things…..nuts, dip, veggies, etc….. But I haven’t ruled out using votive candles in holders as well. These are really big cups (double D’s, I think) so it can do both.

Do you have candelabras stored that you’re not using?…..put your thinking caps on, gals …. my next ones might be made of twigs and toile :-)
