Rope lighting

The last few days have been a blur!
My youngest son is still here  on leave
So very little is being done on any of our projects.
I did manage to rehang the cottage chandy  one morning before he awoke though!
I decided to remove the chain...
And hang it from rope!



I had found this old piece of rope out in the shed and wanted to use it somehow along with
A vintage barn pulley I had bought  last year after the French Flea Market .



Just a little something to change things up a bit! Add a touch more character!


I love the look...so much more like a lantern now!
Don't you think so too?
