She hangs a Dollar Store fence from her ceiling…brilliant!

- I've always wanted to make my own hanging chandelier for under my porch. So, I headed out to my local Dollar Store and picked up four plastic garden fences for $1.75. Next, I took an old tomato cage and cut off the top portion of it leaving just the bottom ring. Then, I took a piece of off-cut welded wire mesh that I had left over from another project, cut it to fit inside the ring, and bent the wires around the outside of the tomato cage ring.
For these corner areas where it doesn't quite fit, I just took a pair of wire cutters, cut off the excess, and then bent it around the wire so that it's attached to the tomato cage. I just broke off the pegs that stick in the ground for my fence pieces. Again, this is really lightweight plastic, so it's easy to bend and break off.
Then, I took my first piece and using some zip ties, I tied it around the tomato cage making sure that the zip ties were pulled nice and tight. I added zip ties every couple of inches to make sure that my fence was secure around the tomato cage. I added on another piece of the fence using the guide holes on the fence and clicking it into place, and again working with more zip ties. I had an opening where the two fence pieces didn't quite meet, so I broke off another piece of the fence, worked it in with zip ties and connected it as well.
Once it was all connected and zip tied on I came in with some Rust-oleum satin heirloom white paint and I spray-painted the whole piece. Once I let it fully dry, I came in with this black wax from Country Chic Paint and added just a bit of dimension so it wasn't so flat working it in to almost make it look like rusted raw iron. Then I took these battery-operated fairy lights and I worked them around the outside of the chandelier wrapping them around. This is a wired fairy light, so I could just wrap it, and it would stay in place. Then I also took a battery-operated puck light and I secured that with zip ties to the top of my wire fence mesh in the middle so that I have two options for lighting when I want to use this chandelier.
To add some beauty and a more decorative finish, I took these faux white branches and worked them around the top of the chandelier just zip-tying them on. Since this is going outside, this greenery is plastic so it is meant to go outside and it will withstand weather and temperature.
Once I had that done this is my finished chandelier here outside under my porch. It is a covered porch, so I'm not worried too much about the rain but I really love the beauty and elegance that this chandelier adds to my porch. It is low enough that I can reach from the ground to change the batteries or turn the puck light on and off, but if I was going to hang it in a higher space, I would probably get a puck light or battery lights that can be controlled with a remote. That just makes it easier but for me, this works for my space and I am so happy with how this project turned out.

I made an autumn version of this a while back...Kept the fence black, glued on fall leaves, small pumpkins, and orange lights.
Oh I like that!!
Would be my choice in colors too!! Love fall.
@@lindamoser6317 yeah I love fall colors!
That sounds beautiful!!
Great idea. This will be part of my outdoor Halloween decorations this year. Thx!
This is Gorgeous! I wish I had a brain that could come up with stuff like this. Would be pretty for an out doors wedding, or just to dress things up. 11 thumbs up from me!😀👍
What a Super Dooper idea!! Looks expensive!!
Me too. I have ZERO creativity. Looks awesome.
Da
Me too
@@Hamigal that’s not true. You just haven’t had the experience or spent the time cultivating these skills.
Both of the projects were awesome! I am going to try that chandelier, and thanks for the ideas.
I have to say I see a lot of garbage made from dollar store stuff. But that outdoor patio light was absolutely gorgeous! And that basket went along so cute with it!
Thank you! So glad you liked my chandelier! I hope you will join me over on my own channel as well ☺️❤️
@@hollygraceblog what channel do you have another!
Love the chandelier😀
Wowsers lovely, I want one. I could do that. Good job👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love this…quick suggestion if someone wanted to use for a outdoor wedding add crystals it would really look pretty. You can get them wholesale online. And if you wanted to keep it on budget the acrylic would work. This is the 1st dollar tree DIY that I like
That's an awesome idea!
I would,I've seen beautiful one on Amazon
This is gorgeous lm going to make them and sale them for weddings and special occasions
The light was great. You could put it on a retractable plant pulley to easily access batteries etc or to change height ,you could add a solar light to it.
Great ideas! Thank you so much! So glad you loved my DIY! I hope you will join me over on my own channel as well ☺️❤️
Your presentation and clarity of detailed instruction is excellent.
So often such information is either too long time wise or not detailed enough. Yours was just right!
Wow I did not wait I should have waited. That would make a gorgeous centerpiece for garden wedding. God bless you and those hands. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much! So glad you loved my DIY! I hope you will join me over on my own channel as well ☺️❤️
Your dollar tree has such a wide variety of fencing! Loving the outdoor chandelier! Very inspiring!
I was surprised at how beautiful it turned out. Love it. Thanks.

I’ve always envied people who had the ability to look at something and see the possibilities! What a gift that is!❤️❤️❤️
Oh my gosh so glad u reminded us of those lovely plastic white flowers 🌺!!!!
Very clever and it gives me an idea for the top of my kitchen cabinets that I have birdhouses on. Thank you for sharing. ❤️
How clever...and beautiful the chandelier is!
That is lovely. Could be used to look like wrought iron over a dining room table too. Great idea.
The white chandelier is the prettiest one I’ve seen made from $🌳
all I can say is WOW! beautiful.
And just to think I have 20 of these fences just sitting outside they would not stay in the ground and now I know what to do with them!
Impressive & beautiful 🕊

That chandelier is awesome. Maybe an additional idea to trade out the flowers for different holidays
In the beginning I was skeptical, using plastic fences but in the end, they turned into your creative ideas & are beautiful !! 😊👍
That chandelier is GORGEOUS! I loved it even without the flowers!

The basket is absolutely beautiful too. I was thinking that You could add fairy lights it also and have the all over a Wedding Reception Area. It would be very beautiful for an Outdoor Wedding.
Love the basket even in black. I would fill wit flowers or put bucket of ice in it for cool drinks. So pretty. 😍
was it really Dollar tree Honetalk went? They only sell one type of plastic garden fence ,the same grey fence for the last 5 years
