Garrett SnyderLooking for a chandelier to brighten up your dining room? How about one made from over 3,000 multi-colored gummy bears.
New York-based artist Kevin Champeny has designed a what are being dubbed “Candeliers” from acrylic gummy bears strung onto see-through wires (don't get your hopes up, it's non-edible).
The Candeliers are available for purchase, in two sizes, from the gummy-centric home furnishing company Jellio. But don't promise it to your Secret Santa just yet: The 18″ diameter version is selling for $2,400, while the larger 31″ version goes for a whopping $6,500.00.
