- After the paint dries, distress various areas by lightly going over them with a sanding sponge.
- Apply dark wax with a clean cotton rag.
- If desired, buff the wax to a shine with a different clean cotton rag.
- Attach the tart pans to the top of the candleholders with all purpose adhesive and allow to dry.
