I love my chandelier.

The Lettered Cottage is one of my favorite blogs because I love Layla's cottage-y style.  I loved the chandelier she put in her dining room... so I copied it in our dining room.  And I really like it.  Thanks Layla!  :)  Here's how I did it:

Got my lamp shades & braided jute cord.

Glued the braided jute to the bottoms of the lamp shades.

Jake hung it for me.  

Voila.  Dining room chandelier.  

Now I just need to repaint my table...

The chandelier was from Ikea, the lamp shades were from Lowes, and the jute braid was from M&J Trimming (I ordered 2 yards online).  Overall, it was only about $75 and really easy to make.  :)
