Here is a picture of Lily when her "Pink Blankie" was still pretty.
Doesn't it look so soft and shinny and a pretty soft pink color? I'm not showing you a picture of it now almost 4 years later. Those of you moms that have kids with "blankies" I'm sure you understand. For the rest of you lets just say it's not all those previously listed things anymore and the only reason it doesn't stink is that I wash it in baking soda on a regular basis. (Thanks Brooke for the tip.)
So ANYWAY....
I've been working to get everything ready ahead of time for the girls birthday party in October and I want to make a faux chandelier. I got everything out that might possibly be usable to inspire myself and take a picture to share with you all of course. While I was looking at this picture I took earlier today I thought: "There is a chandelier in here somewhere....I can smell it."
Somewhere in all of this is a chandelier just waiting to be created. I've been inspired elsewhere too. Check these out:

Each one is amazing, inspiring and even shares easy to follow tutorial but not exactly what is floating around in my head. I'm hoping I can get that image out into reality. I'll share pictures here if I can!
She is such a little comedian :) Can't wait to see the chandelier!
