Vase Into Mercury Glass Pendent Light [West Elm Inspired]

I am always looking for ways to spice up and personalize our condo, although I'm somewhat limited because we're renting right now. Sometimes people forget they can change out the lighting when they rent. It's an easy change, just make sure you're not doing anything that will damage the existing fixture or the ceiling and you can easily take it back out when you move. For this project I was inspired by these cylinder pendent lights from Rogan Objects. They're priced at 500-700 bucks(!!) and West Elm is selling these "antique" glass jars. These babies will set you back 100 bucks. I love the color gray glass and the visible light bulbs inside them.My plan was to create a combination of both these looks.
I started with a brand new vase from Ikea and will show you how to drill a hole in glass, and how to turn a recessed light into a pendent light!
