Free Vase to Silver Candelstick Fall Tablescape

While shopping at a local thrift store I came across the "free" box. These vases were tossed in for anyone to have. I saw such potential so I scooped them.

A simple and easy transformation came via one of my favorite products: Krylon Looking Glass spray paint.





Working in a protected area I sprayed my free finds. This paint dries quickly and provides a massive transformation! They instantly look like silver or pewter vases!





I added a little extra detail to one of the vases...just some cut grass plumes tied on with jute and a few acorns from the yard hot glued on.





Scattering the vases through the center of the table I loosely arranged plant clippings from my yard with some Milo cut from a local farmer's field around them. I decided to use the vases as candle holders instead of their traditional use.
To make the vases work as candle sticks I filled them partially with sand. The candles stay put this way! ***always be careful when working with lighted candles and never leave them unattended!
You can see how easy it is to dress up your table for Thanksgiving with just s few easy steps, using things from around your home! See the whole tablescape on my log Hunt & Host!
I hope you'll head over to the Hunt & Host blog for other ideas and some thoughts on what your worth!
