I’ve been meaning to make these metal lanterns for quite some time now.  I first got the idea from browsing through West Elm’s decor section (below).

Looking for ways to spruce and refresh the decor in my living room, on a budget of course, I was looking for something simple yet very stylish.  After a trip to Hobby Lobby and $7 later (yes I used a 40% off coupon), I walked out with a nice size perforated metal sheet. I was able to make 6 lanterns from 1 sheet of metal. Definitely impressed with the results, I’ve shared my version of creating something similar in the video below.  I hope you enjoy this Make It Monday, be sure to subscribe to my list for more posts like these and other stylish tidbits.
