SUPPLIES
- palette or plastic plate
- sandpaper
- medium brush
- wooden candleholder
- dry rag
INSTRUCTIONS
- Using fine grit sandpaper, lightly sand the wooden candle pedestal.
- Paint the whole candle pedestal using Lavender or Light Purple. Allow to dry.
- Using a dry brush and/or rag, lightly brush Pink onto the candle pedestal covering only about 2/3 of the candle pedestal's surface. (It should look streaky.) Let stand for a minute, then wipe the surface with a dry rag for a vintage effect. If desired, add more Pink. Let dry.
- Once the Pink has dried, add White covering about 1/3rd of the surface. Wipe with a dry rag to color preference.
- On the second pedestal, repeat the steps above, using the following colors: Pink as the base; Turquoise as the first second layer; and Light Green as the final layer.
