A few days ago, I showed you my paint makeover on a star-shaped, crystal votive holder.

It’s all part of my plan to add more white and ivory shades to our Christmas decor this year, for more of a White Christmas theme.

I’ve got another holiday decoration redo for you today:

An easy way to transform unloved decorations into something that goes with your decor and style!

It all started with a blue tin lantern we received as a Christmas gift . . .

It was pretty, but the blue just didn’t match anything we had.

But that’s all changed now, and I love how my little makeover turned out!
