DIY Pedestal Picture Frame






This is another fun project to do with your thrifty candlesticks. My inspiration is from Mrs DIY and the Tennis Guy.





I found what I needed for $4,00 at the Goodwill and sprayed them white. Important to note that I chose one shorter and taller candlestick.




















After they dried I glued the frame to the candlestick with E6000.










They look so sweet in my daughter's room. You can take the tour here if you'd like.















I do think these would look great in every color and since they are so inexpensive I need more!















By the way, I saw these awhile ago in a local antique mall for $12.00 each. Now we know how they were most likely made!





Hope you like!

This is genius! I have tons of frames, but can only display a few because they are all the same height, I am going to try this out.
