Fake an Apothecary jar of sorts.

I happened upon this awesome candlestick for $1.99. So cool. Then saw this glass thingy, candle holder, candy holder, whatev. It's super heavy. And it was a buck. Perfect match. I don't know what to call it. Apothecary jar? Hurricane? Bowl on a stick?

Gather the necessities:

Attach glass to candle holder:

Done and Done. I love when things come together perfectly. If I didn't already have a peanut butter cup holder this would be perfect...Maybe, maybe, maybe I need more peanut butter cups.

Ruby Red Slippers said...: I LOVE it! You motivated me to head to the local Salvation Army...I looked, and looked for something to glue, spray paint...something!
I didn't find anything cheap, or great, but I found a GREAT floral center piece for my dining room table-it was awesome! Looked custom, the right colors, the pot was unique-all this for five dollars! Loved it!
...Then they lady at the register told me that "5" was really part of "NFS"-meaning not for sale-it was a decoration for the Salvation Army....
So I went home empty handed- :(; February 6, 2010 at 6:48 AM

Kat - we love jellybeans in our house. They don't last long enough to even fill a jar!; February 6, 2010 at 7:17 AM

About Me

Name: Kirsty

Location: United States

I am a mom. A mom to three boys. But, I haven't always been a mom. I once taught public speaking. And I've been a PR executive, marketing director, and school counselor. I have no idea what I want to do with my life, but I love what I'm doing now. I'm trying to help my boys grow into fantastic young men. I am a runner and a biker. I am a wannabe photographer, a wannabe junk finder and crafter, and a wannabe professional writer. I am not fancy, I get excited when I find a good deal, but I have very expensive taste. This is our life. Family, Friends, Trips, Butterfly Projects, Laughter, Tears, Arguments...it's all here. As crazy and chaotic as it can be, I wouldn't want it any other way.
