Vintage Candle Mold

Since returning from our family beach vacation this past weekend, I’m having a hard time getting motivated to do anything!  And this heat wave isn’t helping either.  I did however, clean the house today and tweaked a few things as I went along. 

A few weeks ago, while heading down to see our daughter in North Carolina, Charlie and I stopped at a few antique shops along the way.  One of the things I bought was this vintage candle mold.

I couldn’t believe the price I paid for it…..$40!  When we were antique shopping in Pennsylvania they were asking $70 and up for them.

While at the beach last week, I found a few pieces of coral reef that had washed up on the shore.

It had a terrible smell so when I got home I soaked it in bleach for 24 hours and then sun dried them.

I’m looking forward to the much needed rain and cooler temperatures they are calling for this weekend.  Maybe then I’ll be more motivated to get started on some of the projects that are just waiting in the garage. 

As always, thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a wonderful day.
