A Feather in Your Cap
June 24, 2009
I think all chandeliers and sconces should wear hats. Tiny expressions of one’s soul. There are hats for crystal chandeliers, hats for simple sconces, and hats for any style of fixture you can think of. “A feather in your cap” came to mind as I was rummaging through my racks of trim, I stumbled across some fabulous Peacock feather trim (real feathers, no animals are hurt).
I have put feathers on night lights, but now I have put them on the hat’s of chandeliers. My creativity has gone wild with this notion, I have a large variety on my work table and will be taking pictures of them as they are finished.
Imagine a plain or fancy fixture with these whimsical little hats on top. They will surely make you smile.
If you are in the area stop in and see the variety or visit Shandell’s online.
