floor candlesticks

I saw this idea on another blog. Floor candlesticks from a ballister. I already had these in my garage, so that made it super simple.
I had my friend Jana saw off the top and some of the bottome to three of these...


I sanded the rough edges off and spray painted them black. It took 3 coats.



and now I have floor candlesticks. I thought it was fun to put pumpkins on them and then change them out for the different holidays.



Super easy, and it was really fun to do!
