One of my ((favorite)) creative ideas LaurieAnna had was this great Ball jar chandelier...the chandy before was really pretty but kinda plain...
LaurieAnna took aqua Ball jars - flip them up-side down, and sit them over the light bulbs. So fun and easy!
We love that!!
Genius!
I was so inspired by LaurieAnna's idea...when I got home from the Fall Preview Show... I gathered up some of my aqua Ball jars and dressed up my kinda plain chandy...
I LOVE IT!
Thanks LaurieAnna for the inspiration!!
And no, they don't get too hot.
; - )
it's a good idée !! merci beaucoup

Well, don't you know that I just jumped up from the computer, Ball jar in hand, and went straight to my breakfast room chandy! It didn't fit!? Looks like my little "candle" part is too long. Please don't tell me that I will have to get my hubby involved in yet another great idea...

What a great idea!! Love it!!!

Tina I love that idea. I will have to do that on my candle chandy on the back porch.
You could spot hot glue them so they would
not fall off if knock by accident. That
Laurie has some of the most fantastic ideas.
Between you,her and Monica there is no stopping that decorating crew. I bet yall's
minds never stop. I know I wake up in the
middle of the night with ideas,so I can
only imagine how all of those creative
minds work. Love her idea and thanks for
sharing it with everyone. Rest now and get
ready for the next go around.":O)

What a great idea! I certainly never would have thought of it but its gorgeous. I have a chandelier just like it over my kitchen table...now the quest for blue ball jars!

That is too cute! Have you ever seen those battery powered little votive candles? Wouldn't that be cute? You could even glue them on posts and have them on the patio or in the garden...OMG why did I throw those jars out when I moved? Gaaakkk!

Tina I had to comment again...Duh!!! Note to
self...Self candles need air to burn I thought as I was going out the door to put
my jars on my chandy. Well...I had to turn
the jars over and not as cute that way but
still cute. Sometimes my brain gets ahead
of my good common sense.LOL. another note to
self ...buy longer candles.LOL.":O)
