I was flipping throught the Pottery Barn Catalogue the other day and fell in love with these outdoor votives below...SIGH! And with summer coming, these votives would be P-E-R-F-E-C-T on our deck and sceened in porch areas.
So when I found these lil' green cuties below for just $1.99 each at Old Time Pottery, I knew I could easily revamp these guys to look more like the PB originals!
First things first, these white lids were NOT workin'. So I removed the lids and decided to spray the white hangers with some leftover Oil Rubbed Bronze spraypaint.

Once the painted hangers were dry, I added sand and simple votive candles and DONE. Yup, it was that easy!

This one is hangin' from our outdoor garden rack on our screened porch! I can't wait to light these babies at night...so fun!
This green color is perfect for our screened porch and deck which have black wrought iron and dark brown wicker furniture, as well as rust and orange colored cushions. Don't you just love the perfect "pop" of color?

ReplyDeleteI like them better than the PB candles! Love the green! :o)
ReplyDeleteI love "finds" like these...you know when you find something that works better for you than the original?! The green is a great accent! I hope you enjoy them for many summer evenings!
ReplyDeleteI have also been obsessed with those candle holders! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous! Love the green and the simple hanger is perfect. Yep! I agree...better than Pottery Barn!

Great job and an even better price!

They look great, I love how they turned out!
ReplyDeleteVery Pottery Barnish Jane! I luv how the black pops off that green! Great find!
ReplyDeleteYou know, I saw these, Jane, and couldn't believe PB was selling mason jars. Love that you did yours on a frugally fabulous budget!
ReplyDeleteCute, cute! Great makeover.
ReplyDeleteLooks great!
ReplyDeleteThey look great, what an awesome find! We did something really similar for our wedding, we got so many compliments on them. They look great hanging from tree branches.
ReplyDeleteOh..these are super pretty! I just made some of my own last night...if you want too, check em out over here.
ReplyDeleteHave a Wonderful Day!
Good job! I love Pottery Barn knock-offs. :) I like how you added your own twist to it!
ReplyDeleteOoooo! Those are really pretty, great job!
ReplyDeleteLove this adaptation. So cute and practical too! This post inspired one of my own. It will publish this Thursday -- I will point my readers in your direction as well.

Love the green! I made some of these a couple of years ago, and have found them to be very versatile. I hang them in my golden rain trees out back, and on hooks that stick in the ground, line my driveway with them as luminaries when I have parties, and use them on the patio and front porch. I know they'll come in handy for the next hurricane, since I live in Florida. Beautiful job!
ReplyDeleteI love these too! The green is a great color and they really do look much better with the oil rubbed bronze. Great work!
ReplyDeleteThese turned out so great Jane!!

Jane,
ReplyDeleteThanks sooo much for showing off these cute jars...I have a Old Time Pottery about 2 miles away...I will go by sometime this week to get some:)
Blessings,
Linda
Looks GREAT! Painting the metal was the perfect touch! Thanks for linking up to Anything Related!

FYI - These mason jar holders can be found in different colors/wire holders at the Christmas Tree Shops ($1.99) for anyone in search of them. I bought two of them a few weeks ago with clear glass and bronze top. They also had them in cobalt blue, pink, green & yellow.
ReplyDeletefor my sister's wedding, we made these but put split peas in the bottom to add the touch of green. they look so pretty that they are now on my mantle.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea! I loved those jar candle holders, but not the price. . . your knock-off is right on!
ReplyDeleteWe don't have a Old Time Pottery in our area, so I will have to be on the lookout for something similar at one of our local stores. I am totally obsessed with grean and black right now...have re-done my family room in those colors and I'd love to take it outside on the deck! Cannot wait to try this...how smart!

I think they're romantic! They bring just the right tone of whimsy, and I love them. Thank you for linking to the Boardwalk Bragfest. (Would you mind displaying the link at the bottom of your post?) Hope to see you next Wednesday, as well!
ReplyDeleteYour version is way better than PB! OTP is my very favorite place to shop. I spend hours at a time in there!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! They look so comforting and relaxing :)

So cute and classy! It would be perfect for our Bring Spring Linky party over at Scraps N' Strings. Adorable!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I have a lot of jars maybe I'll give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteJoy
soooo pretty! I love the green!
ReplyDeleteVery clever. I miss living where there is an Old Time Pottery! None here in CA.
ReplyDeleteI saw those votives in PB also....actually I like yours better and the price can't be beat!
ReplyDeleteI love these! I have so many old jars in my basement and this would put some to good use. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHugs N Herbal Blessings, Mandy
Great job! Better than the originals! I love the green.
