… and thank you all for your input!! So I have to say, this was one great big PITA. Who knew I have superstrong ceilings that drill bits don’t even want to penetrate? It took me HOURS to get the hooks in the ceiling ø† hang this thing. And it needs refinement. The plants in the baskets are new, so they’re small. When they grow and start hanging down over the sides of the baskets, it will look better. I probably need to rearrange the little lights too. And I need to secure the battery pack for them, to the pane between the windows. But man. It’s 9:30 and I’ve been at this since about 5:00, including a trip to the store for different size toggle bolts. I’m worn out. But happy.

I couldn't have started a job like that at 5 pm. You go girl. Makes you wonder what material is used in the ceiling. I like the lights. It looks like fairy lights and something hanging, i.e., bulbs? Looks good!

Yes they are little clear glass candle holders hung with double strength thread. The plant containers are way too big, I'll be changing that out.

I am absolutely in all that you did this project all by yourself. You really are one of the most competent single women I know. How are you gonna water those plants is my question.

Thank you! It won't be hard to water the plants. They have drain plates underneath them and I'll use my watering can with the spout. I'm sure it will be tiresome at times!

Wow! Great job! I could never have done that myself.
I love the fairy lights and hanging candles.
