Supplies

Unfinished Wood Blocks

Cream & Black Acrylic Paint
Cream Patterned Paper

Burlap Ribbon
Pearl Dots
Tim Holtz metal embellishments and corner feet
E6000 Glue

Directions

Paint the wood blocks cream and the candlesticks black. Let dry completely. Cut the patterned paper to fit the front of the wood blocks. Use the Mod Podge as glue and a sealer to adhere the paper to the wood blocks. Use your finger to smooth out an wrinkles in the paper before it dries. Once Mod Podge is dry decorate the blocks with ribbon, vinyl, pearls, and metal embellishments. To create the flower glue one end and glue in a large circle then start coiling inward and cut the ribbon when you get to the center. Cover the center with a metal embellishment. Use E6000 to glue the blocks on the candlesticks.
