One element I am LOVIN' in this room...is the DIY Chandy which began it's transformation as one of those outdated brass chandeliers that all too often end up in Re-stores everywhere.  Here's where this dated lil' light started...yup, this baby has seen better days that's for sure!
 
 
But Mandi from Vintage Revival had a vision.

She used hanging garden baskets to build a cage around her existing light.  And then spray painted the entire piece in Krylon's Spray Paint (Metallic Brass).  Here's the chandy now...
