    Talking Need Ideas....

    this weekend at a yardsale I got 2 huge beads. They are ceramic with flowers painted on them. Right now I am trying to get the masking tape off. The tape must be years old its brittle and breaks every other second!

    Ok I am going to try to attach 2 pics, one of the beads and one of my dining room dish pattern.
    My first question is, are the close enough to match?
    Second, I want ideas on turning the beads in to candle holders.
    I am thinking if I get some wood molding, and maybe a couple more wood beads or finials I could make a couple stands for a pillar candle. Would it work?
    Ok here goes with the pics.

    I'm not very good with the artsy crafty kind of thing but just wanted to say that those beads are so pretty. I think they do go nicely with your dishes.

    I think they match nicely........ I like the candle holder idea...... Just soak them and the tape should come off.....
