Lights for the Living

I have been cracking my head on the best design for my Living Room lights. Ever since I was at that light shop in Puchong I could not stop thinking about that 7-lamp bamboo-like chandelier. When I was first there, its displayed price was RM720 and on top of that I could get a discount of 30% (connections connections). But that was a long time ago and well the house wasn't ready yet and well what's the point in getting the lights so soon, right? So months past and I could not stop thinking about it so I brought hubs to the shop to check it out and convince him to purchase 2. But alas, when we got there, the price doubled! It was now going for RM1,400. WTF! I didn't ask the store owners why. Even with the 30% discount, I could not bring myself to purchase the item, I would have felt too cheated. On top of that hubs couldn't see the beauty I saw in it. So with a heavy heart I left the store. *Sigh*

So I have been looking around fo lights. I'm pretty sure I have been to every light store in the Kajang area. Uptown and SS2 as well! I hear that Puchong has quite a few decent places too. However, I spotted the perfect crystal chandelier for my Master Room in a huge store at Uptown. Price decent, no discount though, apparently its NEW ARRIVAL. AND on top of that in the same store I saw these gorgeous hanging lamps that I thought would be wonderful in my Garage. But after a suggestion from Ots and seeing this shot in one of my home mags, I figured they would make interesting and unique Living Room lights as well. Yay! Hope you can see it, my photography skills suck.

A long glass bowl (cylinder-like) with gold trimming/frame. I think it has 3-4 candle-lamps. Hubs thinks its too 'simple' for our 'grand' Living Room but he hasn't actually seen the real thing. I'm sure I will manage to convince him its perfect in every way until he finds out how much one costs that is!
