from ‘what is that?’ to diy: the polish chandelier
A whole three years ago, I enthused about these paper chandeliers I spotted at the local Polish pottery shop, and relied on reader rebeccajean_w for background info on what they were. Well, last week I was browsing around and learned that now there’s a DIY on how to make a Polish chandelier at Oh Happy Day! Jordan’s results are fantastic (and her model’s matching dress is great, too). Oh happy day indeed! — Mary T.
