Chandelier

I change up my kitchen chandelier a few times a year.  This is January...

(small bird nest and eggs - actually a Christmas ornament)

There is a combination of silver stars from Restoration Hardware, small beaded lanterns, oragami made by a friends daughter, a paper machee skull I found in the Dominican Republic and strands of fabric beads from India.

This is my "Shop Local" girl from Anthropologie.  I never change her out.

Silver stars from Restoration Hardware. 

Chandelier

My fabulously talented longtime friend and soul sister Lindsey Redfern took this picture of my chandelier last summer and I JUST found it. Our chandelier is an ever changing work of art - nothing is off limits to go on it and everyone who comes into our home comments on how unique it is.

Thanks Lindsey for the awesome photo.

My Chandelier

I get a lot of comments when people come into my kitchen about my chandelier. By itself, its nothing special. But draped with the bits and bobs I have found over the years (ie: garlands from Tibet, small glass lanterns, ivy, lampshades that I have made and also purchased from Anthropologie, Christmas ornaments that don't quite make it back in the ornament box...you get the picture), it becomes much more than just a light fixture - it becomes the focal point of our kitchen.

I love it.

Kahala Chandelier

I recently stayed at the Kahala Resort in Oahu (which btw, is AMAZING). I was spellbound by the gorgeous chandelier in the lobby.
