Gold & Glam Chandeliers

As I was scouting for a client's dining room chandelier I came across these two lovelies and immediately had a gold crush! Whether you choose a sophisticated silk shade with clean lines or a linen shade with pretty oyster crystals pair it with gold and you will surely add glamour to the dining room.
The best part they are both affordable, can you guess which one is under $300?

Here's a little tip, take off the chain link and add a solid rod that matches the finish. It is a simple way to elevate the style and continue the flow from base to ceiling (it also increase the chic factor...chain link is so not chic)!

What is you answer? Which one is the less expensive chandelier?

Your Own Times Square Crystal Ball

I would have to say the ultimate chandelier is the crystal ball we see in Times Square each New Years Eve. With its 504 Waterford Crystal Triangles it sure does pack a punch. Not sure you would really want to light your house (..hello ridiculous electric bill) with it but these options below could make a similar statement and kick off the year right!

The beauty in Times Square

just a bit of fabulousness!
