Do you ever make your way over to the wood crafts in your local craft store? I always find awesome wood items to alter. I have seen tons of projects with a wooden candle stick holding a mason jar or a wooden block. With Halloween fast approaching I have even seen sculls and other scary props glued to the candle stick. I decided to alter a boring old wooden candle stick by attaching another wood item, a shadow box picture frame.
What a quick craft. I used Gorilla glue to secure the frame to the top of the candle stick. (after I painted) I used Martha Stewart Poodle Skirt Acrylic paint to make it pretty! Added some tulle and a set of Chipboard stickers from Crate paper, a few odds and ends inside the shadow box, and there you have it... an easy project you can recreate using up some of your scrapbooking supplies and a few wood items.
I have heard that some dollar stores sell the wooden candle sticks but I have yet to find them in my stores.
