When Moon needed something to enhance the blank space above a circular mirror, she decided on sconces.
Instead of splurging on something new, she decided to use remoteLED lightsand vintage-looking candle votives.
To create the double-light sconce, she purchased 2 candle votives at Dollar Tree.
This project cost her $5.
First, they stained the blocks with leftover coffee.
Let your coffee-stained building blocks completely dry, says the duo.
If they’re damp, they won’t glue well.
Then, take a hot glue gun and add them around the vase, stacking as you go up.
Once the project is done, you could add flowers or a battery-operated votive.
She also purchased $1.25 square mirrors and put them on top of the frames.
First, she connected two framed mirrors with apopsicle stick in the back.
Then added a third (frameless) mirror on top, creating a vine-like effect.
She repeated the process six times.
The result is a $30 project.
Anyone who has shopped for mirrors knows that this is agooddeal.
It will be a perfect addition to any empty wall.
She spray-painted the rings gold.
Then, she wrapped two wooden panels (future shelves) with geometric gold peel-and-stick wallpaper.
