On the 24th Day of Pinterest...

My crafty love gave to me...

A red $1 store candle holder!

Here's my Pinterest Inspiration...

I like the whole look, the candle holder, the peppermint striped candle with popcorn on the top...  so I made the candle holder from a candle stick and candle plate from the $1 Store.
 

I glued them together with the glue below.  I let it set up over night.

 
I then decided to paint it with a glossy red spray paint.
 
 

I did about 3 coats, and turned it over so that I could make sure to get all the nooks and cranny's.

Very simple, very easy and very inexpensive!

We're having my future sister-in-law's bridal shower here in the spring and I think I might make more of these in different colored purples for part of the centerpieces!

And, since today's the final day of my Pinterest series, let me share the rest of what our crazy Christmas Elf, Paddywagon, has been up to!

He cordened off the living room...

 

Had an illegal drag race in the playroom...

 Apparently Grease was his inspiration...

 Relaxed with a good Christmas book and a cup of Hot Cocoa...

 Made our living room into a Cat's Cradle with Baker's Twine...

And made a snow Angel... errr... Marshmallow Angel...

Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed the past 24 Days... I still have a lot of projects that I plan to make from Pinterest, so I think that I'm going to make it a weekly segment after the First of the Year!
 
We hope that you have a magical, fun, family and friends filled Christmas!
