DIY Ultra Dye Pendant Light Fixture

My husband and I were out to dinner and the light fixture over our table gave me an idea! I could recreate the look using popsicle sticks, an embroidery hoop, dowels and little "s" hooks. Plus I could use a new Plaid products that has just reached the market FolkArt® Ultra Dyes! And bonus their wood burner tool too!!

I started off with the supplies.

I wood burned inspirational sayings on each stick. Then painted each front and back with the array of dyes. I didn't wash my paintbrush between similar colors so I could create the continuous colorful ombré effect. I laid the sticks on a long piece of double stick tape.

I then drilled a small hole in the end of each stick and holes all around the embroidery hoop. I inserted small cup hooks to the ends of the dowels. I attached all of the sticks and hung the piece from a fabric wrapped single lightbulb fixture.

Cool huh?
