this weekend's theme
Well, this isn't a new reveal. But you have to admit it was a rather gutsy one. :)

This one of a kind treatment was so fun and really didn't take that long to make! The trick was to find a chandy with the right lines, then use willow branches and grapevines so they were all able to bend in all the right places.
The full tutorial is HERE.
Do I love it the same to this day as the day I made it? Absolutely!
What creative things have you done with your own chandelier?
Can't wait to see in this weekend's 3rd themed linkup!

I have similiar chandelier in my basement storage room and seeing your idea, I may do this and hang it outside off a tree branch under either our fire pit/bar area or the whiskey barrel fountain/grilling area. Humm..thanks again...Mel's Cabin enjoys your ideas...I featured an old picture of yours with terrecotta pots.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog! Thanks for hosting these linky parties and providing this opportunity for all of us to be inspired each week!
ReplyDeleteI do love that makeover on your chandy. I am sorry I'm late yet again to the party. But glad I could join in! Thanks so much for all you do.
