Second Chandelier......IS FINISHED

We are almost finished with the inside.  John put a bug in my ear AFTER I had the glass for the outside totally ready to go.  He says....."Wouldn't it be better to work from the inside out"??????  UGH!  Yes, it would.  :~(  SO....I have one more row (red) to do and the inside will be complete.  Lighting portion is already in and all that is left is the socket and chain.  We can do that once it is complete.  I love the chain we used this time.  Big and chunky and fully capable of holding up 196 or 216 pieces of glass.  I say OR because I'm not exactly sure how many rows I will put on the outside yet. 
 

Isn't the chain awesome?  

The crazy thing is.....I already have another wheel and project waiting for me when this one is finished.  I have the design for the bedroom chandelier already.  And I have my wheels spinning for one in the foyer.  I'm hooked. :~)  Next time I post....I'll have her finished. :~)

I decided to edit this post with the finished picture.  I love love love how she shines in the light.  I can't wait to get the lighting kit finished and hang her in the living room.  She is 13 round, almost 20 inches in glass, and weighs a ton.  192 pieces of glass and over 700 copper and stainless steel rings.
