Let there be light

The Garden Palace is electrified with candle power.

I fretted about how to use the candles in this chandelier ever since my dear son picked it up for me at a resale shop in Austin. 

I've had it so long that I daydreamed up all sorts of ways to power it with candles. 

Not so long ago just after falling down the Pinterest rabbit hole, I became intrigued and inspired by crafting with wire.

I saw and pinned several versions of this wire candle holder. 

I knew immediately. 

This was it. 

I tossed the tuna cans and all other daydreams.

The result thrills me. 

I didn't do anything to the chandelier.

This is the original finish and perfect for the Parlor Rose Garden.

Have a great week.
