These bright and pretty paper chandeliers are a fun way to update a space at home for a party or for any day you want to add a fun splash of color to your decor. Each chandelier takes just a couple pieces of scrapbook paper and glue to turn a room from bland to beautiful!
I love how these look when several are grouped together and hung at various heights. They resemble a bright burst of confetti designed for the wall. The chandeliers look just as pretty on their own as well. I snuck one into the small corner where I have my reading chair at home and it has been brightening up my space daily.
One of my favorite things about making these simple paper chandeliers is how easily you can transform them to suit any style you have going on at home. While my favorite bright and festive colors work perfectly for DIY party decor, paper chandeliers done in various shades of blacks and grays will look absolutely modern. Or, for a more crafty, vintage-inspired take, use patterned paper to give the paper chandeliers a bit of texture and charm — just be sure any print you use is double-sided to ensure the chandeliers will look great from any angle.

That’s all it takes to create a gorgeous hanging light display to brighten up your dinning space for spring. They’d be a fabulous addition to any shower or birthday party.
