Thank you Christina! I love doing these easy projects. 🙂

Love it!
I like them in the firebox if you don’t use it. I would put more in (maybe double) and I would do mostly brown 🙂
Cool stuff

Love these! Very cute!
Really cute ideas. I am filing this under my mental “To DO” list. I have a bunch of old spindles and table legs in the garage!
Wow! I’m impressed by this creative idea. Great job!
Warmly, Michelle
Thank you for sharing!!!!!!! Can’t believe it can be done in that way.
I love the colors. Looks great.
What a great project. I am thinking that I may have to steal your idea for a space that I need to add some height to in our house. (Now I just need your magical garage to find the parts!)
Wow! Very nice. And I love all those colors together.
This is awesome! I will never look at headboards the same again!
I love the color!!! Great job! 🙂
I love this! I have been collecting candlesticks for months now to achieve a similar look. I’m planning to use white and an aqua color (and maybe brown) to paint them. Now I know that the vision in my head will work since I’ve seen your idea. 🙂
Saw you at the JAG party and love these! Great job!

That is so creative to cut bedposts! Love it!

OH my goodness. I have been looking for a cheap way to get tall candle sticks. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this idea!
Awesome! I love the idea of using them in the fireplace – gives a nice cozy feeling.
Keep posting stuff like this i really like it
What an awesome post-and I love it so much…that I’m looking for bedposts and spindles tomorrow!!
What amazing candlesticks!!!!!
I love what you did by mixing and matching and I am in L-O-V-E with the turquoise color.
Way to go!!!!
They’re all great but the turquoise ones are gorgeous, absolutely wonderful!
You are so crafty. These are really original and awesome. I think I need to get my husband’s table saw out!! I especially love the turquoise. They’d go great with my pillows.
I love them! I have been making some too. I love the colors.
Great idea! I love the teal color!
It looks like fun putting all of those “puzzle” pieces together. You really thought outside of the box. 🙂
Those are really cool!

Thanks for this great idea! They look so good!
First let me say what a great job you did on the candlesticks – they are indeed awesome pieces for height, and I love your method of mixing and matching pieces til you got what you liked. When you showed the pic of the three of them in turquoise, my heart went pitter patter -how adorable!
But oddly enough, I don’t like them as much when you put them in the group with the white and brown ones… it makes them look out of place – the others are so classy looking to their whimsical.
Eh, who am I kidding. By the time I finished this comment, going back and forth looking at them, I do like them together… They just don’t have the POW for me that they did alone, with the contrast to that crisp white of the mantle. (So sorry for such a long comment, but I really liked them and wanted to share my crazy thoughts!)
Oh the possibilities!
Gorgeous! Absolutely gorgeous. I really love the white and brown. How creative to put umber over the white paint. You are really talented.
Very very very CUTE!! I love them!! Great color choices too.
Great idea! I never thought to use bedpost legs to make candlesticks!
I really like the cream ones with the brown glaze.
Good job!
These are fab! And the turquoise color is sending me over the top, it is great! So cute, way to pull things together.
Love those “candlesticks.”
Love those “candlesticks.”
Gail, These came out great! Love that they are all so different. I’ve never tried this one, thinking the posts all had to be the same circumference where joined but I see that yours aren’t and they look just wonderful, esp all painted up! Maybe that huge firebox needs just a few more candles to make it really pop when they’re lit? Just a thought…
I’m so going to try making these now!

OH MY! LOVE these! Great colors.
