My New Period Lighting

I received a most exciting package last night – two historically inspired chandeliers handmade by Yankee Crossing. I had been longing to replace some of the modern-looking ceiling fan light fixtures in my home with some 18th century style chandeliers ever since I discovered Yankee Crossing, who were featured last year in the Early American Life Directory of Traditional American Crafts. Here are some photos that I snapped of my new goodies (not yet installed):

The colors of each chandelier are a perfect match for my bedroom and dining room, respectively.

  1. Love those lights Steph! ….especially the red one. I picked up several in the same style for my home and I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way they complete the look I want.

  2. Your new lights are totally awesome! I need some too, but I keep trying to figure out a way to make my own out of old thrift store chandeliers!
