Oh yeah, and a great diy idea for lighting too 🙂

Hey Amy! I love that idea for over the island in your kitchen! I would totally use the dark for a kitchen. Keep me posted-I’d love to see! ;}

I was looking for lights to put over my island and got frustrated with the cookie cutter selections and costs. I decided to make something and this came up on google! Do you think it would look ok with three of them over the island?? I love the silver pendant you used. Do you think black would look good for the pendant part?

I do want to comment on the pendant but first I want to say hello. This is the first time I’ve visited you, via Pinterest, and just have to say that YOU are brilliant!
I like to think that the term “design on a dime” was coined by moi because …… a looong time ago when I became a new stay at home mommy living in a 900 square foot bungalow by the beach, waving good-bye to the daddy every morning meant time to play house with no decorating dinero!
I, just like you, looked at magazines and though to moi self…good grief, I can do that! Let’s just say that my son’s first word was “Lowes?”
Fast forward 15 years, I now have the decorating dinero and have a hard time parting with it because….the prices….geeeez….and I know how easy it can be to make (like you say) some things on my own.
All this self promoting, sorry, leads me to my comment….sort of.
YOU really are brilliant for not only teaching your readers, but for teaching your adorable little ones HOW to do and make and create. They might not say it but I bet they believe that “mommy” can do anything!
Ok….saw those buckets and thought the SAME thing!!!! Now I’m trying to figure out if I can split one in half to make matching wall sconces.
This is turning into War & Peace so I will close.
Have a great weekend!
Lisa

Quick question, though…does it put out much light? It seems like the bucket would block out the light and just create a spot light where it shines down. This is my husband’s theory, anyway! I’d love to know your thoughts!

I will just have to continue my stalking because I must have this for my boys room!

P.S.
I loved the swordfish in your original idea board for the room…I have one (long story but it was FREE) and my boys room may be just the place!

Thanks for all the great ideas!!
