Colorful Chandeliers

My latest blog obsession is Made By Girl, written by greeting card designer, Jennifer Ramos. Jennifer blogs about innovative home decor ideas, jewlery, handbags, photography - pretty much anything that inspires her on a daily basis! I also love her passion for eco-friendly and green design, something that I, myself have a deep interest in. Check out her store to see some of her cool cards!



In a recent post, Jennifer spotlighted this beautiful home, pictures of which were posted on the homeowners' Flickr account. I loved everything about this home but the one thing that stood out in a big way was this beautiful, colorful chandelier. She bought the chandelier on Ebay in the UK but after doing a little digging, it looks like you can purchase it online from a bunch of different retailers. Made by PT Home, this chandelier retails for about $150 and is made of metal, glass and resin with colorful resin beads. The Gypsy Chandelier is not wired for the USA, according to retailer Dutch By Design, but I'm not 100% sure that means. I know that electrical outlets are different in the UK but I think you can just buy an adapter that allows you to use those products, unless this wiring issue is something different altogether. The total length of the chandelier, from the hanging chain to the bottom of the beads is 125 cm (49.2 inches), but it needs a minimum clearance of at least 75 cm (29.5 inches). The chandelier is also available in other sizes, colors and styles. Check out all of these lights by PT Home! Lights out until next time. - Via MadeByGirl

Thanks for the comment Jen! They really are pretty affordable as far as chandeliers go. Though shipping from Europe is probably killer.

I just got the gypsy chandelier. It is European hard-wired. Any advice on what I need to make it work in the States without paying a fortune?
