It has been said that the most affordable way to redecorate a room is to give it a new coat of paint. If that is true then the second most affordable way to give your room a new look is with the help of the right lighting. A shabby chic chandelier is fast becoming a popular way to add the right touch to a shabby chic room.

The beauty of a shabby chic chandelier is that it can be functional, decorative or both!

If you need a chandelier which is functional and offers enough light to service the needs of your room, be careful in choosing your fixture. Finding a gorgeous chandelier, only to find out it doesn't provide enough light can be frustrating.

Charming old light fixtures discovered at flea markets or yard sales can be turned into either a main source of light with simple rewiring, or a piece of decorative art by combining your imagination with fun items from a craft store.

Some people have even created a shabby chic chandelier from things they have around the house. How about using a metal colander with small lights inserted in the holes, or an old lamp shade, re-covered in a lovely shabby chic fabric and suspended over a regular light fixture? You can even create a dramatic light fixture by combining the parts of two or three broken chandeliers.

Did you know you can even dress up an old chandelier chain with a cute slip cover? You can find these innovative decorating accessories in a variety of colors and fabrics.

The beauty of shabby chic decorating is that you're only limited by your imagination and sense of fun. A shabby chic chandelier offers you the opportunity for creating one-of-a-kind lighting ideas that can be the perfect finishing touch to your elegant, cozy decor.
