I Love Chandeliers

I am back from our mini get away and had a fabulous time...good friends and lots of fun......I did find one little treasure in Sutter Creek a little town we visited on our way home.....I will post it later this week.....
************************************
Well anyway....did you know I love Chandeliers......I have many or I should say a lot around my home....I thought I would show you just a few......you can click on any picture to make them bigger...I took the pictures at night and they are a little hard to see the detail..... :-)
this one is my newest....
I put it in my bedroom over the new Victorian mirror......
found this cute little chandelier ornament at Christmas time.....

table chandelier I found an an antique store a while ago...
I have it in my bay window in the living room.....

this one is hanging in my kitchen bay window.....
the shades were white...didn't like them white so I sprayed painted them pink...and added some beads....
I like them much better.....

made this chandelier a few years ago....painted it white and put lots of crystal and beads...made little white lace covers for the shades and added pink ribbon and roses.....found the tea cups at a little antique store for $1.00 each...what a deal....I hung them with pink ribbon and hung a crystal in the middle of the tea cup....


I painted the crystal's pink....
I thought they showed up better against the teacup

I added pink pearls and a hair ribbon on this chandelier....

I was so excited when I found this bird cage stand .....
I knew I wanted to hang a chandelier from it....

my Victorian bedroom chandelier...
I painted the roses on the ceiling medallion from Home Depot....

cottage bedroom chandelier......
gives the room such a romantic look.....
believe it or not ....I still have more....but that's all for now.....
*******************************
glad to be home...I have missed all of you....
Hugs,
Mo :-)

Good morning Mo...what an eyeful of beauty you have delivered for us today...I guess if I had to choose just one, I'd choose the tea cup one you made...it stole my heart right away! I don't think any other lighting but chandeliers would do justice to your wonderful cottage! ;-) Bo

Hi Mo,
Welcome back little traveler! Wow You have a wonderful collection of chandeliers. They are just beautiful and just the right touches for all of your rooms. My favorite is the one you made with the teacups and crystals. You always know just where to put the pretty touches and that always inspires me. I can so see something like that in the shabby old house kitchen. Can't wait to see what you found! I already know it will be fabulous.
yeah....tomorrow is our Friday lol
Hugs

Hi Mo, I'm glad you're back and that you had a great time. I love all the chandeliers, I need to figure out how to get some of those in my home. I have a small one that was in my daughter's house when they bought it. They thought I was crazy for wanting it. It is tucked away in my garage and needs some paint. Someday I'll get the electrical part done and I can hang it.
Anyway, yours are beautiful.
