I had to print it out so that I would have the shopping list for next weekend. I'm thinging of painting the clothspins but I don't know what color because the wall color is going to change. I'm getting on the band wagon of making the laundry room a more relaxing/fun room to be in. I'm replacing the tiny bathroom vanity with a utility sink cabinet too. It will still be considered a 1/2 bath with the toliet in there but the sink will be more usable. I'll post pictures as it progresses.

Super cute idea!

Whata did you use to cut the cage with? Did you break the welds and if so what with or how? I have my cage, light fixture and clothes pins just trying to get the frame together. I'n going to use an old thrift store metal plate as a medalion on the ceiling.

I tried wire dikes, tile nippers, and tin snips but the wire is heavy gauge. After I asked this, while I was trying to get back to sleep, it came to me. A dremel with a metal cut off wheel. My project to start today. Yipppee Yay!

Well I'm on to plan E tomorrow. The dremel worked but I cut on the wrong side, thought I had recovered, then one of the leg welds broke, then I thought I had recovered, and was ready to wire on the last ring when I realized I had it upside down, smallest ring at top, and the pins wouldn't hang right. Looks like I'll use some chain to hang the now totally bent up rings and sone heavy wire to hang the burner plate/light kit. Oh yea I dropped my camera and the battery cover broke. The camera ...»

It won't! I'm going online to see if I can get just the battery door/hatch piece.. I really don't want to have to buy another camera.

Wow, that's crazy awesome. It took me a minute to figure out those were clothespins on the chandelier.

great idea, I think my daughter would get a kick out of this one.

Heck with my awful laundry room (outside, but under the same roof). I think this would be cute for my little dining room. I was wondering if I could glitz it up with some paint, such as Martha Stewarts "Precious Metals" or if anyone knows of some glittery paint that is less expensive? Thanks so much for posting this. I wanted to do the copy Capezio (?) Shell one, but it is beyond my budget to buy the circle cut tools and then the expense to have them laminated. What do you all think?

I forget which blog I read about the copy kat shell one, but she said she went through two or more circle punches... so that does not sound economical enough for poor ol me. ha ha.

I tried to spray paint my clothes pins but didn't sand them first. They must have a sealer on them or made of an oily wood because the paint wouldn't stick. I'll have plan E finished and pictured by the weekend, sooner if my camera parts come in. One could always glue beads and baubles to them or take the time to drill each one and use small chain, wire, or jump rings to add charms or doodads hanging from them.

here is a picture of it partially completed and waiting for paint to dry.

here is revision E. I will go with a shorter rod and remove a link or 2 of the chain when I take it back down to redo the room sometime this summer.
