I've been wanting to make candle sleeves for some time as my light fixtures have been "nekked" for almost 3 years now!

I printed off a matching black and white chevron/zig-zag pattern.

And then measured the candlesticks so I'd know the size for each sleeve.

I cut out 6 rectangles and then used double-sided tape to make 6 paper cylinders.

Then I began to slip them onto each candlestick
{notice the writing on the barren candlestick on the left}
It was a an easy transformation.

And just one of those tiny details that helps finish off the look.

Of course, then I realized my dining room lighting was in dire need of help too.

So I ripped another page from my Botanical Print book
{Taschen, the same one used for the prints framed on the wall}. What an easy change!
Cheers to a fun & safe Fourth!

They look great! It's amazing the difference seemingly small changes can make.
That is REALLY adorable! I'd never think about doing it, but what a great idea!
Thanks y'all!!! It's super easy, removable, and just adds a hint of something extra. Fun stuff =)
Love it! Been looking through your past three posts, and you are so creative! Good job!
