Chandelier Planter Project

Can’t wait for spring? Start getting the supplies together for this project while you wait!

  • Chandelier (try Craigs List, Ebay, thrift stores, yard sales)
  • Terra cotta pots and saucers (The same number as the “arms” of your chandelier. Ours all had 5.) Plastic pots would also work. Get creative! Try your own spin!
  • Outdoor-rated spray paint
  • Waterproof glue: Elmer’s Probond is perfect for gluing porous (pots) to metal (chandelier)
  • Plumber’s epoxy putty – I used this to help create an elevation for draining (optional)
  • Flowers, plants
  • Moisture Control Potting Mix
  • “S” hook for hanging (and the chain that comes with the chandelier if needed)
