Nursery Chandelier

  How to Decorate your Nursery on a Budget

     Ever look through home magazines and see beautiful chandeliers in a beautiful nursery or living room then look on-line to buy the identical item?  More than likely the price for those chandeliers purchased at a store range for over $100.  DON'T DO IT! You can get the same chandelier for way cheaper.

Here's how:

Look on Craigslist for cheap chandeliers or your local thrift store.

                                Here's one I just found on Craigslist in my area for $25:

Here's what you can turn it into with paint, small shades, beads, and time:

Think about the money you could save by doing this project yourself.  Depending on the deal for the chandelier itself, the paint, beads, and lamp shades can all be purchased for less than $40 off Amazon.  That potentially saves you about $100 and it's personalized to your decor!

This chandelier sells for $199 at Pottery Barn Kids...

This can be done for under $60 depending on the cost for the chandelier.

So whenever your out check out your local thrift store, flea market or garage sell.  At home browse Craigslist.  You never know when you'll find that gem that you can recorate into a beautiful item.
