DIY Vintage Goblet Votives

growing up in savannah, ga we were taught about colonial georgia throughout our education. we would dress as (mrs.) general james oglethorpe and participate in activities likely introduced by our founding fathers.
one of my favorites was candle-stick making. so when i saw this DIY on {what junebug loves} i knew it was something i needed to get busy on. these vintage goblet votives would be lovely as a table centerpiece or would provide the perfect romantic ambiance bunched together on the mantel.
you will find step-by-directions on {what junebug loves} or sunset.com
as for me i am off to search for the perfect votives from the flea market.

Rudiments

this blog has been in the works (ok back of my head...) for a while now. i have officially been encouraged to layout my thoughts, inspirations and any thing else i have a hankering for. i am a lover of arts and crafts, beautiful images, sunshine, traveling, lovely weather, the Low Country, family, friends and food and beverage.
enjoy.
