One of the biggest issues I struggled with solving was the ceiling of the tent.... this one took a LONG time to figure out. I really wanted antique chandeliers... but finding ones to rent in Denver was impossible and buying them clearly didn't fit the budget. So I researched and researched online for HOURS, and finally came across "Ribbon Chandeliers" and my visions eventually transpired into one large ribbon chandelier and two smaller versions.
HOW? Multiple rolls of Ribbon, quilting rounds, wire, hanging lights (IKEA) and a glue gun. Pretty simple project, just time consuming. Paul really struggled with the idea of HOW to hang them in the tent which was his part of the project. The quilting rounds opened on the sides which would allow them to be centered on the two tent poles. I also used hoola hoops on the upper rounds of the large chandelier since the quilting rounds were not available any larger at the store.
