Dollar Store Candles Dressed Up

The dollar store is full of hidden treasures. When you least expect it, you find something perfect for your home, buried in between boxes of cornstarch and plastic spoons. One thing you’re sure to find at most dollar stores are tall, glass candles. Sometimes they’re decorated with ornate paintings, but others are plain and pretty boring. Why not dress them up?
