Hi All!
I Found this already white chandelier at a local shop. I had been looking for one of some sort to hang on my birdcage stand. After I cleaned and rewired her (all by myself!) I hung her on the stand, which was already painted a nice chippy aqua color!! She just really was not attractive at all, so, I dug out all of my clear prizms and just randomly hung them around, and I also had some beaded pealish garland and draped it around the bottom. She still needed something. I came across a clear beaded garland at Walmart in the wedding section and wrapped it all around the inside area to fill in the gaps. She is Looking a lot better now! I plug her in and almost went blind! TOO bright! She has 6 arms and with that comes 6 bulbs. So, I had 6 beaded bulb covers that I bought on e-bay, put them on, and that finally finished her off, the covers also dim the brightness to a tolerable glow! I think she'll do. (till I can afford a real one!) You can't see them, :( but there are lots of leaves on there, I hung the prisms from them!! Rhonda
When I was a little girl, I would pick weeds, (I thought they were flowers), all clinched in my fist, I would give them to my mother, in a vase the little weeds would live, until.. It made me feel good inside. As an adult, I still pick weeds, by picking ugly or castoff item's and creating something nice and useful. It still makes me feel good inside.
