The Garden Chandeleir

During this pandemic I have loved giving my garden the attention it deserves, that includes this chandelier made from a vintage potato sieve.

There are cutout left for the light to spill back and front. The original cut out pieces were arranged over the holes to give it a more 3d effect. I think it has a really vintage decorative feel, fragile and beautiful just like our planet. I have renamed this lamp The Pollenator
