Diane from In My Own Style added some ambience lighting to her gorgeous outdoor oasis over the summer. I love Diane’s resourcefulness, and this project is no exception. Diane made a thrift store run to purchase some glass hurricanes and then gathered the rest of her supplies, including an old paint stick and tuna can, from around the house.
Diane attached the tuna can to the paint stick using a copper adapter to form the base for her candle lantern. A coat of oil rubbed bronze spray paint, and all Diane had to do was place her hurricane and candle into the tuna can!
