Last night I was at Michael's for a few minutes while DH was in REI looking at guy stuff and I came across these fun little guys in the $1 section. They come in black (two designs), hot pink, bright blue, chartreuse, and orange and they're about 4.5" tall. They are made out of that thick felt stuff. Aren't they great? I love the really graphic silhouette effect, plus I am a big ol' sucker for anything with a chandelier on it so of course I had to buy a few. They can probably be blinged up with some adhesive rhinestones or they can be left as is. I can see a lot of possibilities! So go...run and buy some right now, and then tell me what you make with them!
wow those are cute! Lucky for me Michael's isn't so close and I'm not tempted to go buy them!! They might look really cute on a mini tree.
ReplyDeleteI just might have to go there and pick up a few. A friend of mine loves and collects chandeliers.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love those dollar bins at Michael's? I find the neatest stuff there. :)
Wish I lived near a Michael's for so many reasons! I'd get into a whole lot more trouble though. These are so cute! {The nearest one is about 2 1/2 hours away! I live in the middle of nowhere.}
ReplyDeleteMy heart just stopped. I thought for a moment you had just run into another thrifted treasure. And then I realized I too could have some. I'm going today.
ReplyDeleteYou could attach little flat sided beads to the bulbs so they looked 'lit up'... i think a trip to Michaels is in my future...
ReplyDeleteI have got to check those out!
ReplyDeleteEndless possiblities!
Loving those felt chandeliers, especially the black one which I'd frame in a black square frame on a white backing.
ReplyDeleteI think I win on the "I don't live close to a Michaels". Try a 20 hour flight and an $800 airfare :-)
Back in September I found one at Michael's but it was a heart with pretty scroll design inside. I'm not sure what to with it but the shopping sherpa's idea about a frame has got me thinking...
ReplyDeleteThanks,

These are great! I bought lots of the wonderful thick felt wintery shapes, snowflakes and whatnot, from the Michaels clearance bin to string onto some vintage ribbon for a super quick and easy banner. Things like this my favorite kind of find. Cheap, adorable and ready to go! I may have to pick some up as well. Thanks for the tip! :-)
