Flower Pendant Light

By DecoratorGirl

This pendant light was inspired by DIY Maven's Flowery Fairy Lights.  I loved her idea, and I'm absolutely obsessed with lighting, so when I found these egg cartons in the trash at my office (what a lucky find!), I decided to try to incorporate my version of those flowers into a pendant light.  This is the result!

The bright colors would work great in a child's room, a dorm room, or a game room.  Want a more mature look?  Use solid white straws, or translucent straws, or a combination of the two.  There are really an endless number of design » READ MORE
