I have this cute wicker pillar-candle holder that I picked up at Jysk for less than $10 last year. The problem is, the inside of it has become stained with black soot from the burning candles and I can't seem to clean it.
It wasn't something I exactly invested in, so it wouldn't be the worst thing if I threw it away, but I'm thinking that's just too easy.
Hmmmm, chocolate brown would hide any future soot really well!
ReplyDeleteI guess it depends on where you're going to use it. But it looks like it's already trying to turn sage green on my computer screen.
ReplyDeleteBecause I like to make things difficult, I would go red on the inside (for a nice glow when lit) and chocolate brown on the outside for a nice contrast. Also, have you ever painted wicker with a brush? Can drive you insane. Spray paint might be the way to go...
ReplyDeleteNicole, the original colour is ivory. Strange that it looks green on your screen.
ReplyDeleteModernMommy, I was thinking about going the spray paint route, which would also open up the colour palate to include metallics! Maybe a subtle gold? And that opens up the whole idea of spray painting other wooden things I have tucked away .. like mirror frames!
look out husband she's thinking about breaking out the spray paint !!!!! lol
