1. Fill one of the cake pans with marbles
I let them both dry completely. Both candle holders took on a little bit of the tint but not too much. This was just enough to give them that driftwood and coastal look I was going for.
A couple years back, I refurbished all my yard furniture. Some of it was green, some of it was black, paint was chipping and places were starting to rust. I did all of these steps and am very pleased with the way it turned out. This picture is recent and all the furniture made it through the winter just fine.

  1. This is beautiful, Chas! I don’t have or really need a lazy susan on my table, but I have them 4 of them in my corner cupboards. The top cupboard ones are plastic, but the bottom one with 2 shelves is particle board. It’s huge and heavy. I’ve been on a “mission” to fix it up. It lost the vinyl rim around the bottom shelf so I decided to fix it. We used left over tiles from a vinyl floor to cut new sides and I painted the whole thing. It’s not done yet, but it’s getting there. You’ve inspired me to finish it!

    1. Thank you Linda, and I’m glad that this idea inspired you. I LOVE the tip about using them in your cupboards!!! I have also used them with cans on top and place craft and school supplies in them. (Especially in the summer when the kids are out of school.)
