New life in an old object.

I have this monkey that holds two tall candles but he wasn't getting much use looking tired -he needed a makeover...  I bet a few of us could use a make-over these days.

I don't use this type of tall  tapered candle, I only use 'tea lights' because they are safest, imo &  I've even had one of those damage a table when some melted wax leaked out and almost started a fire.  One huge 'Halloween Party' one of the candles on the mantle caught  the spiderweb display on fire just as we all walked in the house, whew!  (thank you Lord!) 
I tell you this because:

        ONE of the number one ways fires start is from CHRISTMAS TREES.
        Please be careful - it's a year when we have more on our minds.

I unscrewed the candle parts (happy they removed -saved in case I want to change him back)  and cleaned and then painted my monkey.. thats all he needed and it was really a no brainer- I just coloured what was there. Now he's looking fresh & festive! Then I died a small wooden canvas - perfect size to make a little tray!  Drilled two holes( Norm did),  painted it black and presto- I have a new cell phone holder, that makes me smile, easy to access!  I wrapped my cable around his arm - always ready to charge... then I turned my phone OFF.    I am turning my phone off,  more & more.

There's a big dog running loose & it's -16,  I hope someone gets him, it's pretty cold. A tiny woodpecker on wood - it turned out so pretty,  it's easy to be thankful sitting at my desk, looking at God's Canvas  with bluejays & wood peckers & chickadees  entertaining me.. begging to be painted! 

REuse. Re purpose New life in and old object.. PAINT & love & patience.
