There are hanging flower baskets, and then there’s getting fancy. Roeshel of DIY Showoff is definitely in “fancy” territory after this makeover, which has her turning an old chandelier into a colorful hanging planter.
First Roeshel removed all the “candle holders” and electrical wiring. She used putty and glue to attach terra cotta saucers, then pots. To paint her chandelier, she hung it from a low tree branch outside and started spraying. If you don’t have a handy tree, Roeshel recommends using a drop cloth or cardboard to set it on-you’ll just need to flip it over at some point so you can get the top and bottom painted. After the paint dried, she added potting soil and colorful annuals. This beauty now lives on her patio, where it probably makes all other flower planters jealous!
