Gone Chandelier-ing

Chandeliers are one of my favorite design items to include in almost any room - I had one hanging over my tub in my bathroom - it was so romantic!    Chandeliers add a touch of elegance to any environment.  They work everywhere - in a bedroom, living room, kitchen, foyer and even your garden.   I am currently searching for one to add to my sisters pergola in her backyard.  These 2 chandeliers that I found at ABC Carpet  are stunning and may have served as inspiration for both Aquilano Rimondi & Mathew Williamson's  beautiful Spring 2012 collections - the whimsical scrolling details in the chandeliers are mimicked in the patterns of these dresses.  Chandeliers do not have to be expensive - you can fish for them at thrift stores, antique shops or outdoor markets.  This Spring - go chandelier-ing!
