Painted Candlestick

I bought a bunch of candlesticks the other day for a couple of dollars each. They needed a bit of a makeover though. I didn't have any primer on hand so I used a metal sponge (not quite sure what they're called) to roughen it up a bit.

And this is what it looks like when its all sanded....

Then i gave it a little paint...

How pretty is that?!
