In a previous life Lindsey's gorgeous Shell Chandelier...
... was a slightly tacky ceiling light fixture.
I discovered this Shell Chandelier project at Tip Junkie where my Stacked Rocks were featured yesterday -thanks Laurie! I love this transformation that includes wrapping the arms of the chandelier in twine -very doable. Shells were glued to the large ball, covering as much area as possible with the biggest shells, filling in the empty spots with smaller ones. Pieces of seaglass for the next ball up, more shells for the cups that hold the lights, and a finishing tassel. Success! For pictures and all the details about making this shell chandelier visit Lindsey at the Pleated Poppy.

Maya, you are on a roll this week! I have admired shell chandeliers forever, but the ones I've seen look way to labor intensive for me. I think I could actually tackle this one. I can't thank you enough for all of your ideas! You are the best!
Oh how cute!!!
Love this!
What a fun idea!! Great project ~~
Fun!
Thanks for posting this! I saw a double sconce the other day at a thrift store for cheap. I'll have to see if it's still there.
Wow, this is gorgeous and sounds fairly simple to do! I may have to try one of these to put in the new master bathroom we hope to eventually build!

I have the perfect chandelier out in my shed just waiting for the day... well that day has come! I look forward to getting my hands on it this weekend and will post a blog with photos when finsihed. Thanks for the idea. BTW I lived in Wiscasset for a year and loved Maine!
