These adorable egg candlesticks are from JC's Loft. I will for sure be making a few of these.

 Love that!!  I read another neat thing to do with any candles you have... Like for Valentine's Day, get some red/white sugar/pearls to decorate cookies and use to decorate the candles...just brush some Mod Podge around the candle-in a thin or thick strip/strips, or the whole side, then roll the candle in the sugar/pearls and Ta-Da! LOL  It looked really neat. I'll post a pic if I can find it. :)

 OK, I didn't find yet, the pic on Pinterest of what I was talking about, but I did find the same concept with a pic I found on the site Kathy posted for 31 Valentine crafts...  Just take any candle, and Mod Podge-cover any part of candle you want to do, be it in stripes, the whole thing, dots, etc... anywhere the Mod Podge is, is where you can roll the candle in anything and it will stick to those spots...Some things you could roll the candle in are: herbs, cinnamon, epson salt, crushed glass, glitter, etc...  The idea's are endless! :) 

Here's a pic of a candle that was rolled in epson salt...very pretty!

What a miserable day it is humid and it is hanging in the air looking almost like fog. Rain in the forecast. I really dislike these days
