Revamped Retro Chandelier
Medium
Once there was a chandelier similar to the one pictured below, but without any of the glass panels left on it.
My daughter was moving into her first apartment & wanted some pretty ambient light for her living room that only had bright lights.
We found the skeleton of a chandelier at Habitat Re-Store that would work perfectly but needed to be rewired from an IN ceiling light to a hanging light with a cord switch. Taking it apart & putting in new wiring was the only Hard Part of this project. The new wiring was a little thicker than the old & made it difficult to thread the new wiring back through the chandelier, but we did it!
It was December & we picked up pretty colorful glass ornaments in various shapes at Target to hang on the chandelier hangers.
She loves her colorful ambient light chandelier!
