I'm so curious to see what everyone else comes up with to create from dollar store items! I spent most of my cash in one aisle... curious if anyone else chose the same aisle as I did.

I received from skullseamstress yesterday!!



This awesome chandelier is made out of paperclips. Yes, paperclips.

(In-progress shot, it's been dark here lately so skullseamstress let me use her pics  )





This was taken straight from my wists - I can't wait to get the light fixture to finish it off!

You can see more pictures here http://www.flickr.com/photos/flickrsy/sets/72157624136329228/

Thank you so much, this is so cool!!!

[skullseamstress]

You have NO IDEA how incredinervous I was that the paperclips would tangle irrevocably horribad in transit!  So glad it survived! (although, these are pics from before, lol. It wasn't too tangley, was it?)

I actually had quite a bit of fun making it, the tutorial is available on etsy from a store called "ReDesignTechnologie s"  (so I won't be talking about the actual method, heh.)

I'll probably post another post somewhere else in repurposed housewares or something.  EDIT: Here's the post   http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=348117.0

YEY I'm so glad you like it! =D

Oh! Pics of receipts / Materials!

Here's the stuff I used: Paperclips, and the wire from some chincy dollar store hanging kits:





(Edit: I checked with my partner beforehand that me sending one large item would be agreeable!)

[deadbathducky]

Omg that is amazing! I love it lol!

Great way to start the gallery

[fluffypants]

Super awesome!

(Yipes, I have my receipts... but I forgot to take pics of one supply before hacking it to pieces!)

[teag]

This is Gorgeous and very creative excellent job!

[cxcaitlyn]

It was barely tangled, so don't worry! Just trying to decide the perfect permanent hanging spot....

[lacey0828]

Wow, so amazing. That has to be one of the coolest things I've seen.
