Yaay! After a week of rain, we finally had some sunshine today! It looks like spring is in full force and thoughts of summer are even starting to creep into my brain! And with summer comes the beach and seashells! So when I was checking out the Restoration Hardware website, I was excited to find this…
…their branch coral on a pedestal…until I saw the price. It’s beautiful, and on sale right now…reduced from $149 to $119. Yikes! Sooo…you guessed it…I took up the copy-cat challenge! 
My first challenge…find some wooden candlesticks...and I came up with these on my first stop at Goodwill at $2.00 for both of them! Woo hoo! They were perfect for me since I wanted something simpler and not quite as tall as theirs.
Next, I simply spray-painted them both black to match…easy peasy! I knew I didn’t have any coral, but I did manage to find a starfish and a nice scallop shell in my summer stash so I simply hot-glued them on and…
…taaa daaa! Here they are…my version for a total of $1.00 each since I only had to buy the candlesticks! Not bad…and waaay better than $149! Watch for them in my summer centerpieces!
Baby Kitty reminds me that this is not my first RH copy-cat. You may remember my vintage-look project…
…that turned some thrift store paperbacks into my Restoration Hardware inspired book bundle! You can get a better look at it and get all the details, including the graphics, by clicking here.
And I am also excited because Hometalk asked me to curate a board of even more Restoration Hardware inspired décor!
