Do you remember these vintage candlestick holders from our Rosey Opal haul? Well, they have found their new home atop our antique curio cabinet in our dining room. When I spotted these, I did not even think about them matching my upcycled picture frame so well. When we got home with these, I was like, “hey…. I do have a good eye!”. I knew they would fit in. And with a price tag of only $10.00 per candlestick holder, I definitely knew I couldn’t go wrong getting these. They are very heavy and they had already been whitewashed, so perfect!
I immediately began searching for pillar candles to top these, and turned to my favorite online shopping spot, Amazon. I came across these interesting little pillars that are dark brown with raised metallic silver scroll-work.
Now, when I received these candles, they looked like they may have been damaged in transit, with some bubbling of the brown paint, and some chipping off of the silver. But you know what? I really like it! They came distressed! It’s actually better for going atop a distressed candlestick holder that’s sitting in front of a distressed frame. If I were still making decorative pillars, I would have most likely been trying to achieve a distressed look when making candles for these holders, so yay!
I really like how the brown candles gently balance everything out, and the silver is just the perfect accent for this setting.

I couldn’t be happier with these finds, or how they fit into our decor.
For the candles, you can follow our Amazon Associate link here. For the candlestick holders, well, they were the only ones like this at the time we shopped at Rosey Opals in New Waverly, TX. But here is a link to some gorgeous vintage white candlestick holders on Amazon, if you’d like to shop this home decor inspiration.
Till next time, remember to always follow your joy! God is good!
