Candle Bead Makeover

This is a really short post.  I have tons to do today! 
Several years ago, I purchased this tea light candle holder, because A) I'm instantly attracted to anything green and B) I love the combination of beads and flame.
Because I'm a freak for seasonal change in my decor, I put this in my box of Spring/Summer decor.  But......it's one of my favorite things because it meets the 3 S's requirement....Simple, Somewhat Sparkly (I'm not a glitter girl) and most of all Serene, and I miss it during the rest of the year.  So when I was making my Valentine bracelet which you can see here, I had the idea that I could change out the beads my favorite tea light candle.  It was simple, fast and fun.
 
 I threw some pearls in it.......
And there ya go.








Now I see can my favorite votive year round.  I can't wait to change it out again for St. Patrick's Day!!

    Great idea! This has me thinking about how I might extend the use of some of my favorite decorations, too.
