Advent Lighting

Posted on 2010/11/22 by Mia in Christmas!, Creative Lamps, DIY Holiday Decor

This weekend we visited our overcrowded store room in the attic (how come storing rooms always so quickly turn into a mess?) on a mission to find stowed away Christmas decor. We found an old electric candlestick lamp in oak. Boooring. But look -  a left-over paint sample (powder white) and some plastic lingonberries later:

Can’t light it until Sunday though. Those are the rules.

    Very nice – just as new !

    Thank you! Easy picey and fun along the way.

    Those lingonberries were supposed to be on top of the moss in the advent candle holder (with real candles) but I found some old plastic mushrooms for that instead. And that colour sample was too light for our walls.
