Candle Lit or otherwise!

Candle chandeliers remind me of old world charm and movies where the setting is way in the past. Though their source of lighting is now obsolete due to the many lighting options now available, that nostalgia creates a designer opportunity. The settings of these pictures highlight the use of candle chandeliers hanging over dining tables. I have thrown in a sconce as well to bring out another candle-like option. The Pillar Collection comes from Restoration Hardware. For people who have recessed ceiling lights or spot lights, this can act as a hanging accent center piece. To make it more playful add some blown glass pieces to replace the candles and spot light it with recessed fixtures! Apart from the gorgeous fixture you'll also get amazing colorful lighting effects.
