Hi Kim I really love the glass ball chandelier. It was ingenius. I have very traditional feel to my apartment and I could do a chandelier in my colors.

That has to be one of the neatest ideas Ive ever seen. I never would have thought of that!

Kim,

This glass ball chandelier is phenomenal! Loved it the moment I saw it. It's a must do, a must have one type of project. Soooo clever and versatile...any size...any color...wow!!!...will cover an ugly fixture...double wow!!!

My only problem.....Where would one purchase a shallow bowl wire frame? Help!!

Thanks in advance for your answer.

This ideal was just ah some.. it reminded me of what I would do with just a little bit and my imagination.

Hi Kim. I am Lisa from Reston, VA. I just saw this great chandelier idea and wanted to comment that it would work so well for a rental property (I rent) where you can't make permanent changes or remove any existing hardware, etc. A lot of your ideas are like this, and I think you should always include some element on your show that allows a renter to make a dramatic kind of change, creatively, without making a permanent change or doing damage. Great show, Kim!

Dear Kim,
This is truely stunning! How do you mount it on the overhead fixture?
Thanks, Jann

Hi Kim! I love your show...you are so creative and fun. How do I hook the wonderful ornament chandelier to the light fixture? I am doing mine in miniature versions for my kitchen as it will finish our remodel with a bang! Keep up the fun shows.

I love this chandelier. I have the perfect place for it.

As I noticed a few other people have asked - Where DO you get a shallow bowl wire frame?

Love your show!

Hello Kim:

I live in a great home that was build in the 50s. My dining and living room area are together (about W29 x L15.5). There is a fireplace on the very end of the room on the west wall with a concrete mantle that is L90 x W2. (It appears to be sinking inward; and I've noticed a slope in the floor near the fireplace. I've checked and I don't have termites. I think the slope is from water from the gutters, because the previous homeowners didn't have proper drainage away from the foundation of the home) is this an easy fix?

My picture window is also on the west wall,which is 102 inches long. All the walls are natural wood paneling.

I don't know if I should paint them or how to properly carry out this task to get good results. I also have natural hardwood floors. The room is rather dark(the only lighting is the chandlier over the dining room table). I need help in these areas desperately.

Please help.

Thank you.

I found a wire bowl similar to what Kim used in this episode at the Well Dressed Home for $28. The url is: http://welldressedhome.com/wirebowl.html. Just thought that I would let everyone know.

Hi Kim:

All I can say is WOW! I love you and I love your show.

Posted by Tracey Whitney – April 27, 2008 5:54 PM

Love this chandelier. Saw the frame ar Pier I

Posted by Marrianne Potts – April 29, 2008 11:08 AM

Where can I find the wire frame you used in the chandelier. I love it. I also wanted to know how to mount it over existing light fixture.

Kim,

That chanderlier idea was awesome,awesome,awesome........I'm going to try it,wish me luck. Just awesome.

Hi Kim, loved the natural chandelier with the glass prisms. How did you hang this?? Love your show, great fun ideas

Posted by kay – May 5, 2008 6:23 PM

TO ALL,
I loved this idea when I saw it, but had a similar issue with the finding of a frame. I discovered that there are many good options for re-purposing items. You could use a metal plant container or decorative hanging pot, a decorative metal serving bowl, or what I used, the top of a wrought-iron-looking bird bath into which you are supposed to set a shallow glass dish. There are many floating candle dishes designed in a similar manner to the bird bath. Thanks Kim for the great idea! Mine in purple looks great!

Hi Kim,
Love your show watched you win and even voted for you. It's my bedroom Kim I need a lot of help to turn it into a retreat from the world. Please see if you can help

Posted by Fay – May 29, 2008 10:16 AM

Kim,
I love your style. I want to know where can I find the wire for the Chandelier with the ornaments. It is Awesome! Also, can you show or give me directions in making a Queen size wall mounted headboard. Thanks I love you show!

Posted by Dessieree Stewart – May 29, 2008 7:07 PM

Kim - What else can I say? I adore your show. I'm buying my first home and can't wait to apply all your ideas. I'm trying to sell the other half on your harlequin wall treatment in "traditional retreat." It was brilliant. Thanks for another wonderful idea!

Posted by Kim – June 9, 2008 6:59 AM

I am getting ready to tackle this project for my bedroom, and have the frame already (gotta love Pier 1 - $19!) but I am wondering approximately how many glass balls are required? I will have to order them online, but I don't want to order more than I need!

Posted by Meghan – June 9, 2008 8:51 PM

I made the light this weekend and it looks really great. Some tips. The bowl I got at Pier 1 and right now Hobby Lobby has xmas bulbs in all colors. Hanging it was a different story we bought 4 hooks but suggestion would be to buy a chain in the bronze color and take off a link to hang on each hook. When we tried to just hang it on the hooks it touched the light fixture. But I used clear all different sizes, browns and greens. My husband loved it. Now that it is hung I am going to add a few more on the outer edges. Once you get going it only takes a couple of hours to make it. Another suggestion is to twist the wire on the bulb once so that you don't drop it. I broke a few. And have your bulbs pre wired so all you have to do is reach for the next one.

I love your show.....it just gets better and better. Keep up the great work

Posted by inga – August 1, 2008 8:39 PM

I have looked all over the place for the wire platter. Pier one doesn't sale it anymore. Boo! LOL! Does anyone know where I might find another one? Thanks!

Posted by Jay – November 8, 2008 1:48 PM

Pier 1 has a new wire platter...a bit different but same concept. I bought it about a month ago.
