I had purchased this set of 3 candlesticks at a resale store with a 75% sale. Even with the sale they were $8.00 for the trio. I know I'm cheap, cheap, cheap. They are not all alike, they just mix well together. The sticks were made for regular taper candles , but I wanted something a little bigger.
Here's what I did: I took glass coasters You know those things grandma use to put under her furniture so the carpet wouldn't get messed up. I had purchased theseat a RS for $.25, added two drops of hot glue to the bottom of each put them on the sticks and added 3" pillars. An almost instant center piece or grouping. You could also use sticky tack The glue will peel right off if you want to switch to taper candles.

Look at what you have from all sides to see if you can make it more your style. You'll never know until you try, what you might come up with from things you all ready have around the house.
