Welcome to White Wednesday

Hello and welcome to another white Wednesday hosted by Kathleen at Faded Charm... I believe this is number 32 for Kathleen and bless her sweet heart she has been hosting this for almost a year now. Please drop by Faded Charm to say hello and look at all the wonderful white posts she has listed.

Last white Wednesday I was in the shop showing you some lighting with somewhat of a creative touch to it. This week I am in my home looking at old lighting, since I have no new lighting other than the track and utility lights. These are some of my favorite lamps and chandeliers in different parts of the house.
I was going to show some creative lighting or lighting I created out of odd pieces I collected but I will save that for another post, this got long enough.

This French piece is one of my favorites, it is made of plaster and horsehair and is quite large. It a cream color with hints of gray blue and hints of faded pink. It hangs in my living room.

This French crystal beaded chandelier has pink drops and glass drop flowers. The pink glass is harder to find because it is made with gold such as the cobalt is made with silver. I had two sconces to match this beauty but alas I sold them...the rent was due :( This hangs in the front hallway.

Another favorite chandelier is hanging in the kitchen, it is a nice old Italian tole with porcelain roses, I like the shape of this one and the old white paint.

This is another old Italian tole chandelier that hangs in the family room

A few lamps around the house with white linen shades, this one is a large alabaster.

Another alabaster with crocheted lamp shade and lace

This is a Italian wall chandelier with glass balls, it is on the wall in my dining room, I especially love the old linen shades from England.

This is a large Venetian candle chandelier that hangs over the dining room table. It is white with gold trim. I bought this chandelier in a box all taken apart with parts broken, the flowers which were to come out of the center were broken and one arm. The dealer who had it shipped from France sold it to me for $200 she had gotten insurance on it and just wanted to get rid of it. I thought I could use the parts and maybe get a lamp out of it. It sat in my garage for a year and one day I decided to play with it. I started putting it together and to my surprise all the parts were there and the broken ones were insignificant. It is a nice old beauty.

This crystal chandelier with macaroni beads hangs in my dressing room. It is a nice old one.

and the upstairs hallway

Well that's enough lighting for awhile, I will post again on lighting at another time. I like lighting, these happen to be on the more dressy side but I like the rustic and funky stuff too. I will post my more creative lighting another time. Thank you so much for stopping by. I always appreciate your comments and I hope you have a wonderful white Wednesday!

Thank you Kathleen!

Blessings
