Underneath was the price, 3 dollars, and this stamp. I almost felt bad about painting it, but i got over that quickly!
Testing out the fit on my wood candlestick that has been waiting all this time to be repurposed. A perfect fit. Now I'm talking like Cinderella.
I was going to paint it white, b/c why not paint everything white, but then i remembered this spraypaint i got at Home Depot on clearance. Metallic Finish. I figured it would be easy to change it to white if i didn't like this. I must give props to Rustoleum, this paint went on smooth and super easy.
Ain't she sweet? And metallicy bright?
Trying out different options and places. She'd look good on my hall table...
She'd look extra fine in my dining room with those colors, especially filled with pinecones for the fall. They just happened to be shoved in the closet, so why not test that theory out?
The possibilities are endless! I am happy to say that i am now officially a member of the cloche club. And they all lived happily ever after. The end.
Linking to these fun parties, a round tuit @jembellish, saturday is craft day @ along for the ride, it's so very thrifty @ it's so very cheri, 2nd time around tuesday, debbie doos before and after party, its a blog party.
I love the metallic finish!! Great job! I'm a sucker for the cloches. Glad you are a member now. :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the way that you displayed and used your cloche and the color you painted the stand...welcome to the cloche club!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the candlestick you put it with. Perfect! Looks so good.
ReplyDeleteTurned out great! I found my dome at Goodwill for two dollars, but now I'm looking for a candlestick.

I really love the paint, sometimes i freak when i paint over wood too, but sometimes it just HAS to be done right? I'm from new friends friday at the girl creative and I am glad I found your blog I have seen lots of these being made/redone recently and I really enjoy seeing what people do different with theirs and i think yours is adorable!

Amazing! I would never have thought to attach it to a candle stick - now I'm on the hunt for one of these cheese domes with a wooden base!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the idea!!
I adore this project! I haven't been able to find a cheese dome anywhere cuz everyone wants a cute cloche!!
ReplyDeleteps I love your background : )
OK so I'm like the ONLY person in blogland who hasn't been able to find one of these. I need to stop looking, and one will appear. Came in via NFF and now following. Stop by if you get a chance :) http://answerischocolate.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteHow lovely!!! I want one for myself. I now have super cloche envy.
ReplyDeleteI found you via Just a Girl.
Happy Friday!
Laura
You lucky duck! I've been after one for awhile now and can't seem to find one. Love the metallic paint!

ReplyDeleteI have my cheese dome but haven't joined the club yet! I really really like the silver paint. I haven't seen a cloche done in this cover yet in blogland. Great job!
ReplyDelete"it's a cloche call".....you caught my eye with that one!! Very witty. Love the metallic paint on it as well!! :-)

Pretty pretty - I love the candlestick!
ReplyDeleteI love the metallic paint! We also liked the appliance paint we used it when we couldn't buy new heaters so we sanded and repainted them, they look fantastic! As does the cloche!
ReplyDeleteyou are too funny! i am one of those people that found a cloche this weekend & for ONE DOLLAR!! so exciting. i love how you put a candle stick underneath, i have an extra one so i think i might just have to do that too. thanks for the inspiration :)
ReplyDeleteand i love the metallicy. looks great on your hall table.
*come check out my blog too if you'd like :)
The silver's really pretty! The only cheese domes I have seen around are really heavy marble ones - and then yesterday, I got so excited - a wooden one! But, alas, the glass dome didn't fit.
ReplyDeleteYours turned out beautifully.
Love your cloche! I'm still looking for a cheese dome. Someone must buy them just before I get to the thrift stores!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like it was made for that candlestick! I recently found a cloche at Good Will myself {finally} and added a parfait glass as its pedestal. Mine is little {it holds like a cupcake}, but it's pretty and I can fit it in anywhere.
ReplyDeleteLove your cloche! I'm loving the metallic finish!
ReplyDeleteThe silver turned out great! And the perfect candlestick for it! nice job!
ReplyDeleteWhoa, you completely upstyled that cloche and candlestick set! Love how the silver looks, very cool.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the cloche club! I love your creation..Christine
ReplyDeleteHow clever! Really clever!
ReplyDeleteLove the metallic look, this is very pretty-enjoy the possibilities!
ReplyDeleteHmmm never thought to paint them with metallic paint ... great idea !
ReplyDeleteLove your cloche and your stand. So perfect. How pretty it is in your vignette too. Aren't they such fun to play with. Beautiful job. Thanks so much for joining the party. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteIt looks great i love it! $3 what a steal
ReplyDeleteYou know, sometimes a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do. Love the makeover, it's beautiful, Char
