Make Aunt Peaches’ Straw Cluster Chandelier

by on Oct 7, 2010

Aunt Peaches’ Straw Cluster Chandelier gives Tord Boontje’s chandeliers a run for their money, IMO. And, get this, it only cost her $2.50  (+ light source) to make. The materials are minimal and include…

  • one bolt of 24-gauge wire
  • 120 drinking straws
  • 1 yard of 10-gauge wire (Aunt Peaches says you can also use an old wire lamp shade or heavy-gauge wire coat hanger instead)
  • 3 to 5 hours of your time
