Birmingham Fam Lighting...

Here is another taste of my sister's Birmingham house project! Some of the lighting in the house - even though we had to use some big box store fixtures (Ballard and Restoration Hardware) to save our budget, I think it still makes a home look special when you choose your own fixtures to go with your decor, instead of just living with plain contractor installed lighting. Even a $20 paper lantern looks amazing when you thoughtfully choose to use it. Hard to believe they are moving in soon - one more week! What do you think of our lighting?

Family room polyhedral chandelier
Small rope chandelier in my nephew's room
Large cage chandelier in living room - my favorite!

I love all your picks, the dining room chandelier is so unexpected mixed with more industrial-style lighting, and I think this is what makes it cool. Where is the large cage chandelier from? I swear I have seen it somewhere...

Yes, the cage chandelier is great - is it Ethan Allan?

You know I wish I had a sister like you:) I cannot wait to see the furnished house! I wonder what the bathrooms will look like... I'm guessing white, marble? Herringbone marble?:) Thanks for the source for the chandelier - I might order one for myself!
