    Default Two candlesticks

    I made for my dear lady two candlesticks from leftover pieces ''Grenenhout'' (yellow pine).
    Was a long time ago I made on, so a fun project.
    She wanted these candlesticks for the livingroom, and she put them on the mantelpiece, one on each corner, and now I have a happy lady.
    These candlesticks are 350mm tall, and finished with two layers blanc transparent stain.

    Thanks for looking.

    Very graceful and well done, Ad. Nothing on earth better than a happy lady.

    A lot of the Feng Shui blather seems like a lot of BS. But they're probably right about "Pairs signify a doubling of happiness." Google ["double happiness"] for the Chinese ideogram. Worth consideration when making any accessory(ies) like this.
