Refurbished Chandelier

I have been working at getting Jessica's room finished and so far I refurbished a mirror for her and now Jessica has decided that she would like to have a chandelier for her room. Well I went shopping for one and they were pretty pricey so I thought maybe I could just make her one... So that began the shopping trips I made to garage sales as well as thrift stores and sure enough I found one for $4.00 it was this ugly gold but I did not care because I was giving it a complete remake.


So here is the chandelier after I have sprayed painted it. Just getting it painted black made alot of difference.


Here is the items I used. The pink beads were actually necklaces I found in the party isle at Hobby Lobby for a $1.00 each. I then found the jewels all on clearance at Michaels so that all cost me no more then $5.00.


Ok well now I am starting to make some progress. Starting to look like a chandelier. I had my husband hang it up in Jessica's room so I could finish it while it was hanging up.


Ok so I took some ribbon and wrapped it around the base of the lighting and the remaining of the beads I wrapped around the chains.


Here is the completed project. I think it turned out pretty good.


And here it is with the lights on. Jessica loved it.... Well I hope you all enjoyed and I will see you at my next post.
