Thrift Store Find - Cheese Dome
I was so excited the other day when I came across my first cheese dome at the thrift store. I snatched it up in a hurry.
I wasn't as lucky though to come upon a candlestick that would work for a pedestal. But a few days later I was able to go again and came across these.
They were wood but had some red highlights. I decided to give the cheese dome and candlesticks a few coats of Rust-oleum Heirloom White spray paint. Then I used a little wood glue and attached the shortest candlestick to my cheese dome.
Then I distressed it a bit so the black would show through.

I added a little nest I picked up at Michael's and a couple eggs for now.
I am so excited about my first cheese dome made cloche. You've probably seen them all over blog land. I love what Nicole did with hers. Go check it out at Thrifty Decorating.
