This is how I made my DIY living room sleeper wood beam chandelier.
The wood was salvaged from an old mine railroad and had some cement dust on them.
After I brushed them down with a wire brush on a drill machine, I sealed them with a dark stain sealer.
I used a decorative chain I found at the hardware store and inlayed the electrical wire to make it less visible.
The rope light fittings I found at a local lighting store but that can easily be made yourself as it's just an electrical wire running inside the middle of it.
