Montage: 47 Living Rooms with Chandeliers and Pendants

The renovations are finally finished in our condo, save for a few odds and ends and two extra dining room tables in the living room. I should also get around to sourcing a living room chandelier. I had the electrician add a box and switch for one in the center of the living room, between the rows of recessed lights. I originally thought I’d like a vintage sputnik, possibly in brass, but now I’m not so sure. Obviously a glittering crystal chandelier isn’t my taste, and a Lindsey Adelman fixture is way out of my price range. So, what shall it be? I found some gorgeous specimens on 1st Dibs, but I’ll save those until tomorrow. Meanwhile, let’s look at 47 different living rooms with various options, from contemporary creations and vintage sputnik to lanterns and Chinoiserie.

34 Buddhas in Decor

I still haven’t tried yoga. Too peaceful. I did however just sign up for a modern dance class at Boston University. The teacher is amazing, and I’m trying my best to blend with the thirty plus twenty-year-old girls (and boy). Anyway, yoga and prancing aside, I do appreciate the serenity of a Buddha. When I lived in NYC, the Buddha room at the Met Museum was one of my favorite places for decompressing. Buddha heads (ad sometimes bodies) are popular adornments in homes in search of zen.
