Whether you're a seasoned thrifter or a newbie, you'll find plenty of inspiration and tips on how to make your thrifted treasures shine in your home.

First, I painted the gold mini candlesticks that I thrifted from Goodwill.
I used Fusion Mineral Paint in the color Lichen. It is a gorgeous light gray-green color!
One of my favorite things about Fusion Mineral Paints is that they come with a built-in sealer, eliminating the need for an additional sealing step.
Next, I rummaged through my DIY stash and found some small wooden round coasters.
They were the perfect size to place on top of the candlesticks to create the pedestal.
I used my hot glue gun to apply glue to the top edge of the candleholders.
I like to use Gorilla Glue long glue sticks. You can buy your own pack HERE!
Then, I flipped the candlestick over and pressed it into the center of the wood rounds.
The glue dried quickly, and then it was time to style them in my home.
I absolutely love how the color Lichen looks with the wood. It is the perfect combination!
And now I have cute risers to display my bird figurine collection.
