recently, I shared my new dining room chandelier, that replaced this smaller chandelier.
I had some fencing left over from this project and this project. my husband wrapped the fencing around an old clock face, and wired the chandelier to the center of it.
the fence is simply held on by bending the prongs to the back of the clock.
this really added some personality to the room. a very quick and easy project, and since, I had the parts lying around—free! hope you like it!
before lighting-(laundry room)…
this project was inspired but this pin, which is adorable,
the source- junk market
and I recently saw some sweet fence chandeliers on junk chic cottage—please check out kris's darling blog.

ReplyDeleteThis looks so great, what a fabulous idea Lynn. I went to check out 'Junk Chic Cottage' and loved her blog too - her taste is so similar to yours, so I have another blog to go drool over !
ReplyDeleteThe fencing is fabulous. What a super cool idea!
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful project. Love this!(a whole bunch)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! I bet you have the cutest laundry room ever! The clock face on the ceiling is so clever. Do you do home tours for blog friends? Seriously, I am heading to Avon mid-October for DD's friend's wedding. Gorgeous, shabby makeover as usual!
ReplyDeleteYou found more to do with that fencing!? Amazing. I just love the clock face and the fence with the chandelier. What a great combo!
ReplyDeleteLiz
That is soooo adorable!!!! you always come up with the BEST ideas!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn, thanks for stopping by Quirky Vistas and leaving me your sweet notes. I think the tarnished silver has huge appeal if surrounded by the right stuff. You have a wonderful knack for turning shabby into sweet and glamorous. Some of the silver I polished last month is starting to tarnish again and I am going to leave it a while and pay homage to it's downstyled glory for a while. I'll see if I can make it work for me.
ReplyDeleteLiz
This just tickles my fancy!! Love the wire fence "shade"! Love the chandy! Love the clock!
ReplyDeleteI would have never thought of that..using a clock face for a medallion! You are too clever! I, too, am a lover of fencing and was fortunate to find a rusty one years ago. It's just sort of sat around waiting for me to find just the right project. I think you've inspired me! I would love for you to pop on over to visit my blog when you get a chance... we have similar musings!
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE the clock face on the ceiling, so cute! And I am going to get some of that wire fencing and see what happens! :)
ReplyDeletethanks Lynn, love your creative spirit!
