For this one, we took out the little part that holds a taper. And apparently I forgot to take a picture of the last one, but it painted gold. Yuck.

And here they are now. Missing one candle of course. Why are decent candles to hard to find? I didnt want the kind with the rounded tops, but that's all I could find that were white. Any suggestions? I also added the little milk glass thing I found.
What I'm not sure on, is the color. It's Blue Ocean Breeze from Krylon. It looks more turquoise in real life than those pictures. Are they too bright? As you can see, our walls are beige but I'm slowly trying to add more color. I thought about Peekaboo Blue (Krylon) but I kinded of wanted an aqua-ish color. Please share your honest opinion of the color! :)
I had to run to Michael's yesterday so I grabbed another candle. That yellow pottery is McCoy & I dug it out of my back yard!

I am LOVING the color! I think they look great!
I use that paint color ALL the time - it is perfect to add a pop of fun color. Thumbs up from me!
Very pretty! I love the color. I'm painting candlesticks tomorrow. How funny! I'm also having a Organizing Linky Party tomorrow if you'd like to join in the fun.
absolutely delightful! so pretty and cheerful! ...and I love that color. I hopped over from "A Soft Place to Land" and I am so happy that I did! Please accept my invitation to drop in at my place one day this week when you get a moment. I have become a follower and would be honored if you choose to do the same!
Love the color you picked, and I love the little vintage fan. I looked at one like that today. Was tempted to get it, but it needed rewiring bad.
I love the color! I'm dying to paint something turquoise. I also think that milk glass thing is so cool!

I love this color! I think the candlesticks look GREAT! And I actually have a project like this planned. I am using the color Bahama Sea though. It's a little darker.

That's a great color for the candlesticks and it looks like a super job. I have a piece of furniture almost that color and find it goes with most everything. Thanks for stopping by. -- Jane F.
What a great find! And colour!!!!
They look gorgeous now! And I LOVE the color! So fresh and spring-y.
Oh I just love that color. I think they look great together. Thanks for sharing at 'Look at me, I'm SO Crafty!' at Fun to Craft.
I think the color looks nice with your light walls, but if you want to "tone it down" some without completely changing the color you could try glazing it or even "distressing" them just slightly. It sort of gives them a gently used look that "takes the edge off".
Great project!
