Chandelier Garden Planter

You all know how much I love to update thrift store finds.

I have been focusing on outdoor projects and was looking through my stash when I came across this wrought iron candle holder. It was a $3 yard sale find.

Check this out:

At first I thought I would spray paint it, but honestly the black was perfect for what I had in mind.

I made a DIY Chandelier planter!

Here is the finished project:

 

This was so easy to make. All I did was pick up 4 solar lights from Dollar Tree and was thrilled when they fit perfectly in the candle arms.

I just took them off the stakes and used E6000 to glue them to the holder. 

It looked a little plain. I was going to add some beading or something to decorate it further.

But when I went to my craft closet to look for something, I saw this old mason jar canning rack and inspiration struck!

The base of the holder fit perfectly into the candle holder!

Don’t you love when that happens?

I cut some coco liner to fit in the rack and added these beautiful plants.

It will look even prettier once the flowers fill in.

A shepherd’s hook is a great way to hang it by my front walkway to give us some natural light at night.

I’m so happy with how this DIY Chandelier Planter turned out.

The best part-as I had everything but the solar lights-this baby only cost $10.

Keep your eye out for old chandeliers or candle holders at your next yard sale!

You could definitely paint it a fun color to match your decor. 

Here is a picture of it at night:
