This DIY galaxy chandelier will really improve your ~SPACE~

In a galaxy far, far away…actually, not that far because you can make this DIY project at home! This galaxy chandelier is giving us all the outer space feels right now.

Remember when you were a kid and would glue glow-in-the-dark stars to your ceiling and wait for them to charge in the daytime? And then at night, your bedroom would turn into your own private Milky Way full of constellations? We sure do, and this chandelier is that same feeling but 10 times better because it is next level!

If you feel extra crafty lately (because we know we are), try making this DIY project and hang it above your bed, near your desk or even in your kitchen. No matter where you put it, you’re guaranteed to feel inspired.
