I’m always on thelookout for interesting items that canbe repurposed and transformed into something else. This time, I used nothing otherthan wooden furniture legs and brass hardware fittings. See the tutorial below:

You will need:

Three wooden furniture legs in different sizes and shapes3 brass hardware fittingsblack paintsuper gluesandpaper (optional)candles

Before starting this project, make sure that the surface of the furniture legs is smooth. Use sandpaper to smooththem if necessary)

1. Paint all three legs black and wait for them to dry thoroughly.

2. Apply strong glue, such assuper glue or super tack,and glue the fittings to the centerof the top surface of the wooden legs.

3. Leave the assembled pieces to dry thoroughlyfor a couple of hours, then insert thecandles.

Tip : If you don’t have black candles, don’t despair! Paint whatever candles you haveblack — that’s what I did with my white candles.

I really like the fact that theseare simple, hence they can workso many different settings. You can place them on your Halloween table like I did here, or display them in your entryway or bathroom.

That’s it! Happy Halloweencrafting!
