Rustic Blue Candle Sconces

I really love the rustic southwest style.

I found these perfectly ugly 1980's  brass candlestick sconces at the thrift store and I knew something could be done to improve them.

Our family room has some southwest elements, and I thought these would be a fun addition. 

I used Blue Hyacinth Krylon Fusion. This paint is awesome. It covers plastic, metal, wood, anything with no sanding or priming! Seriously!



I have used it bunches and it makes it super easy to paint over lovely items (like 1980's brass) cleanly and smoothly.

It is my first time using this color and I am in love with it! The blue is so bright and cheerful.



I toned it down a bit with the hemp and gave it a slightly rustic feel.




Those candles are from a 6 pack at Dollar Tree of emergency candles-great bargain!




So simple, but that bright pop of color makes them awesome!
