From brass to schnazzy!

I've had this chandelier since my teen years.

Pretty. Yes.

I'm just not a big fan of brass these days.

So I went out and bought some spraypaint.

I hung it up on an appletree branch.

And sprayed.

Primer and paint.

Once I finished and it had dried, I started hanging back the crystals.

All 102 of them!

I could see people coming from voting at the local school across the street (we have parliamentary elections today) and I'm sure more than a few thought what on earth I was doing..

Personally I think every garden needs a chandelier ;)

Doesn't that look so much better now?

This will be in our office/my studio soon :D
