1. Gold Dollar Store Frame
You will need two picture frames you can find at a dollar store. Also, two glass candleholders. In addition, you might need something like a dowel to create good support for the whole frame.
Some additional supplies you will need for this DIY are a glue gun, gold spray paint and gold leaves, gilding adhesive, brush, and a wooden dowel.
Spray paint the candleholders, then apply gilding adhesive to them and the frames before starting to apply gold leaves. After ten minutes, you can start applying the gold leaves with your fingers and remove the excess with your brush.
Attach the wooden dowel to the inside of the candleholders using a glue gun. Then, glue down the frame to the dowel and the candlestick holder. And voila! You will have a beautiful gold dollar store frame.
