I feel a DIY coming on…

I have been searching high and low for the perfect chandelier for Emory’s room.
No such luck.
I have found a couple that I love, but they are WAY out of my budget, so I guess I have no choice but to DIY!
I have seen several DIY capriz chandeliers before, but this one by Lisa Roy took my breath away.
It doesn’t look homemade, which I think is SO important in any DIY project.
Mine will have to be much smaller, but I think it is just perfect.

You can see the full tutorial here.
Do you think I can do it?
I’ve also have some other things up my sleeve for Emory’s room.
I took back the rug, it just wasn’t doing it for me…
And, all of her black picture frames have been spray painted gold!
Hopefully I will get them up soon, I love them.

    Oh yeah, you can totally do it. Today, I posted about a baby shower I did where we made garland like that… I’ve also seen paper baby mobiles made out of the same thing. I love the wax paper idea, it will totally mimic the look that you are going for!!

    Hey dan! my family did this as a group diy and it was awesome and turned out awesome! I used a plant holder, everyone else used a lampshade and added a row or two and they turned out GORGEOUS!

    soooo good to see you the other day, btw!

    oh! also…make sure its a good punch….we HATED ours. I ended up buying a cut out where you could adjust the size of the circles and I liked it MUCH better. JoAnn, I love you.

    P.S. just in case this works…and is possibly cheaper…

    Check out world market- coffee 8″ capiz hanging pendant. It wouldn’t let me share the link for some reason. It’s only $19.99

    Aw yes- the capiz chandy. It’s been on my DIY list for ages, but I cant bring myself to start cutting/punching all those little circles. Can’t wait to see yours!

    I can’t wait to see the finished DIY project. I love, love the mix of pattern in color in her room right now and think the light will look great added into the mix. When it all comes together, the room will be perfect!
