HOW TO RE-PURPOSE AN OLD CANDELABRA INTO A PLANT STAND
Succulents are not only trendy today, but also convenient and cost effective.
Owning a house comes with various expenses, some unexpected. Saving money anywhere you can is always a plus.
There are many factors to consider when choosing indoor and outdoor plants.
Succulents don't need much water and care, and enjoy full sun exposure. Perfect for those hot Australian summers!
A backyard doesn't have to be complicated. Especially for those who don't have much room.
Indoor and outdoor wall gardens have made it easier for smaller spaces to have a green addition without compromising space.
But drilling and installing a wall garden can not only be time consuming but some of these already made wall hangings projects, can be costly.
It is no secret that I am huge advocate to recycling the old. I love finding pieces that might become something else or that will serve a second purpose.
I found this $20.00 candelabra on an online website. It is a bit rusty but the sturdy iron condition was perfect for what I had in mind.
Transforming this old candelabra into a unique planter stand only took me 40 minutes. An easy project perfect for a Sunday afternoon.
The best part of this project? The whole stand is mobile, meaning that I can move it to different spaces when needed. Adjusting it to sunny or rainy conditions, benefiting the succulents in every way.
