diy hanging flower chandelier

This dangling floral decoration is surprisingly easy to make, with super spiffy results.

Let us start with a disclaimer: though this hanging flower chandelier won't bring you light in the illuminating, 'now I can read without forceful squinting' sense, it will brighten up a room by the pure fact that it's constructed from dozens of cheerful, dangling blooms.

Simply take a few fronds from your garden (or the florist, if you're flower bed deprived), loop through some thread, then attach to a prettied-up embroidery hoop and you'll end up with something fairly spiffy. This example from The Sweetest Occasion uses snapdragons as the centrepiece, but we can't help wondering what else could be suspended, like herbs, seasonal fruit or perhaps some curling air plants.
