DIY Icicle Chandelier

I saw this project on Pinterest.
 A chandelier made from a hula hoop and a string of icelcle lights.
Instead I used a grapevine wreath. I got everything I needed at Hobby Lobby the lights were 50% off and I used my 40% off coupon for the grapevine wreath.




Grapevine wreath and icicle lights

And some zip ties, but you could use bread ties or  pipe cleaners
Propped up on two chairs to string lights worked perfect.

I already had the hook in the patio ceiling.  It took me all of 20 minutes.

I ran a brown extension cord up the chain along the ceiling and down the wall to the outlet. 

It lights up the table under it so romantically! 
I LOVE it... and I might keep it up all year.
