Up on the ceiling, it's a spoon, it's a fork, no it's Super Chandelier!

This has to be one of the neater restaurateur-based projects I've seen in a while. For the food service owner who wants a little bit of whimsical originality on the inside of their establishment where customers dine, how about a chandelier made of spoons and forks?

Heck, this project could pass for the dining rooms of some homes, unless the homeowner would want to explain to dinner guests why utensils are hanging from the ceiling like bats in a cave. Still, to those restaurant owners or snack bar entrepreneurs who want to create a neat buzz with customers, this is a project that looks cool and easy, all things considered.

The picture to the right comes from British based lighting designer Ali Siahvoshi, but there would be many ways to make you own utensil chandelier. A possible list:

• A round ring of some sort, preferably with many holes outlining the circumference
• Many older (or newer, heh) spoons, forks and knives
• A compact fluorescent light bulb and some wire

You get the picture. Making it all look charming would be the overall mission.
