At Christmas I gave you a tour of our home and some tips on how to decorate under $3. That’s what I did with my “copy cat” chandy in our bedroom…
I saw this from Oh So Shabby by Debbie:
I mean-seriously this is so beautiful, right?? All of the greenery, extra ornaments, and I love the sticks, too.
My dear friend Judi gave me this chandelier last summer. I know!! She gave it to me!! Such an awesome friend. I could hardly wait to hang it in our bedroom.
Anyway, after being inspired with Debbie’s chandy, I knew I need to add something to my new “pretty”, too.
I just love me a gorgeous chandelier, don’t you?? And did you notice the matching candelabra? Sweet!
I got to work on my copy cat chandy with a few items I already had. I gathered everything together and tarted to “play” with my copy cat chandy.
I used tulle, glittered icicles, tree twigs, pearl strings, and greenery that was in my kitchen to make my own:
Copy Cat Chandy
And, I like it so much, I think I will keep it up all year long!! I can’t even think of taking it all apart. I just love this look, don’t you?
The added embellishments are not permanent, so I can add to or change it up any time I want.
So, for zero cost I decked out my chandy. All it took was a little imagination and creativity!!
Don’t you just love being able to being some added *bling* to your own pretties every once in awhile?? I sure do!!
Thanks for visiting today!! I smile when I know you have been by for a visit!! Come back again soon…
