The Orb Chandelier…How I Love Thee!

If you know me well, you know that I love great design and anything that makes a “statement” in a room. Well the Orb Chandelier certainly does just that!

They look beautiful enveloping a crystal or an iron chandelier.

I need one to work for me. What doesn’t work for me however, is the $400-$2,000 and up price tag of this spherical design gem.

So, being the cheap skate that I am (and proud of it!)…I have decided to take on yet another design project.

Stay tuned as I plan to attempt my version of the “Mystical Orb Chandelier” for under $100! (I sure hope I can actually accomplish it!)

Have a Beautiful & Balanced Week!

  1. Hi Kristen, I have actually been searching all over online for ideas on how to attempt to make my own Orb Crystal chandelier. I saw 1 but was not to enthused of the light fixture itself however they did use 2 of the wire hanging plant baskets to make the sphere which I thought was a pretty good idea! Can't wait to see your finished product. Good Luck!

  2. Please let me know how your orb chandelier turned out. I really want one but can't justify something expensive
