YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE:)



Hello Everyone:)
Today I am joining Lisa from http://serendipitychicdesign.blogspot.com/. Have you been over to her blog? What a busy and inspirational lady:)  She is forever posting before and after pieces. She has so much talent! I am one of her biggest fans:)We met about a month ago when she was selling her wares at the flea market, and we hit it off right away. I used to buy from her before I even knew her. We live only about 20 minutes from each other! What a small world.  I'm am so glad we met and she is coming over next week.
Every week she is going to have 'MEET ME ON MONDAY'. where we share the theme of the week. This week it is vintage or hand crafted lighting. I thought I would share some of the lighting I have made for the barn:)
I have been creating chandeliers for a few years now and really enjoy it:) One can never have too many chandeliers, right? This one I made and added some cross charms to it. It is one of my favorites. Right now it is hanging in my kitchen just waiting to be hooked up;).........

This one is a smaller one. The crystals are solid milky white. I really like the look.

This little number was fun to create. Lots of clear, golds and umber colors make it glow at night.

This chandelier is draped in clear and green colors. I wish the photos came out better. It looks so pretty lit at night mingled in with all of my plants:)






I also like to create lamp shades. I look for shades with different shapes,(not this one) then recover them in vintage lace. I just love how the light looks shining through.

Check out Lisa's blog for more lighting ideas along with lots of inspiration. You will soon become a follower.
Have a beautiful weekend:)

`Till next time........
