Rope Candle Holders

It was such a nice long weekend. My husband was home for four days and we had some family in town over the weekend. Our back patio is still not ready for guests, still waiting on the concrete guys to finish the job. I am too afraid to have anyone over in case they fall off the edge of the patio or roll an ankle. Hopefully by the end of the summer it will be ready.

Anyhoo, with my parents in town and my sister and her family joining us for dinner it was a fun time to plan a post fourth BBQ. I saw Courtney over at A Thoughtful Place (love her blog) had put together the nicest 4th of July tablescape with lemons and a flag, both of which I already had on hand.  But I needed a little something more so I pulled out some candle holders from Walmart ($0.96 ea) and some rope I had left over (also from Walmart) and went to town.

I glued the rope on with a glue gun and it really only took a few minutes.

I love the result! It is perfect for summer.

I love easy free projects, doesn't get any better than that.
