HIGH PRIORITY - chandelier lamp

I finish furniture like bunnies have babies, it's just what I enjoy doing.

Unfortunately that leaves other things I collect sitting around being moved from place to place,

waiting for my attention.

I have a small obsession with the Bellora Chandelier at Pottery Barn

So I made my own.

Here's the before.

Supplies and Tools included:

I made my own hangers for my acrylic balls.

I just may look for some smooth glass ornament balls at Christmas

time to replace these acrylic prisms I used.

I LIKE IT!!
