Revamped Bunny Tealight Holders

Happy Easter! 

I've had these Easter Bunny tealight holders for a couple of years now (Home Bargains, costing no more than £1.50, if that) and, to be honest, they were heading to the nearest charity shop this year to find a new home ...........


....... but then they got a reprieve ........


.... as I decided to zhuzh them up ..........


...... first by painting them very quickly, all over, with household emulsion paint ........


...... followed by dry brushing them, equally quickly, with white paint to give them a little extra depth and texture ........


 ...... before finally, using my index finger to wax them all over in gold.


I think they work .......


..... so they will probably now be around for a couple more years Easters after all!

What an improvement! You've become a dab hand at reviving seasonal items.

I think that they're amazing, a lick of paint, bit of bling-y polish & you'd never know... lovely! Really a great idea, thanks for sharing xo
