Halloween Candelabra

I did it, I did it!

I made a

Halloween Candelabra!

Almost like Martha's.

This is Karie's version of

The Halloween Candelabra

(I don't know why that candle looks crooked it isn't in real life)

I can't believe I found the parts to make this.

I found these two brass candle holder thingies
at the thrift store (DI)

But I didn't know if I could use them or not.

Called my son Mark to see if brass could be unsoldered.

NO!

Ok, can ya help me with this?

He did help me, but I was left with these two candle thingies and I didn't
know how to hook them to this. . . .

 I had Gorilla Glued a wooden candle holder
to two wooden bases.
I stayed up one night until 2 AM trying to figure out how
to get the two brass candle holder affixed to what would be the base.
(I think Gorilla Glue can accomplish anything. . . . . Wrong!)
Hmmmmmmm
Son-in-law, Russell, he can figure this one out for me.
Sure enough he did.
(no picture of him wiring the brass candle holder to the wooden base)
Spray Paint and we will soon have our candelabra.

I also had to spray paint the beads.

When you take Junk, literally Junk!

And create something as cute as this

WOW!

Sweet Satisfaction!

Oh, yes, sweet!

Martha isn't the only one that can create!

And she doesn't get the thrill of using JUNK!

I have to say there were a couple of gals in Bloggerville

that did candelabras

I don't remember who they are

but they inspired me more than Martha.

I am linking this up with several Linky Parties this week. . .

be sure to check my side-bar for the great

gals that put on these parties.
