Candles are a great way to add accent and ambiance to any room, but what I find is that the selection of candle holders is not great. I decided to go the unconventional route to show you that different is not a bad thing. I like the unusual, so I was very pleased when I stumbled on this pair of silver Maltese fish candle holders. They are very heavy and only cost £20 from a shop in Clapham Common.
This is a 100 year old pewter Salt Pot, it definitely can't be used for salt so why not use it as a candle holder? You can find these at boot sales and markets and they never cost more than £3.
These brass candle holders were purchased on eBay, I didn't mind that they were brass but I thought that they could look better painted. So I spray painted them white.
This old brass Owl was also purchased from eBay. I really liked all the work that went into creating the feathers and the cut work is gorgeous. It's very unusual and I have never seen anything like it.
Lastly I found these at TK Maxx, they were less than perfect, but I loved them. I got the little holder at boot sale.
