Candlesticks A La Palm Beach


I found these candlesticks the other day at one of my
favorite consignment shops.  Cute, but a bit drab.




I pulled out my craft paints and gave them the Palm Beach treatment.



They will look cute as part of a summer tablescape ~ especially
if I am wearing a cute little Lilly Pulitzer dress while I am
setting it up!

Joining ~

and

Bentley ~ let's give you some Palm Beach style too.
How about a pink and green collar?

Love,
Susan and Bentley

    That's it! You win the grand prize for the best accessory makeover I have ever seen! Ever!! Anywhere!! Adorable, clever, and oh so much better than their original condition!

    Your prize is having those darling little watering cans (and the cheerful coordinating birdhouses!) for your use on any and all summer occasions for years and years to come!

    LOL my daughter went to a rush preview weekend a couple of months ago, and in this one sorority, every girl was wearing a Lily Pulitzer dress. The candlesticks look too cute, but you'd better hide them from the sorority girls!
