We're not convinced that a romantic petticoat chandelier works in our spare, mid-century modern-ish living room, and, yes, we just slipped a probably-flammable vintage petticoat over a hot arc lamp in a lazy attempt to re-create the effect, but we really like the idea and imagine that it would look swell in the right room, with the right execution.
Honestly, Petticoat Chandelier, it's not you, it's us.

I think it looks pretty good. Did you dye it? The photos say both yes and no.
It's pretty, but yes, I would be worried about the fabric getting too hot. Like the 2 different moods made with 2 separate colors though.
I like yours better, but agree that it has a shabby chic aesthetic, rather than modern.
I think I put a scarf over a desk lamp once in college. And that was the end of my experimenting with lights and fabric.
i love the idea, but everything in the house is toddler decor. and living in AZ i probably shouldn't make things more flammable...
no dyeing, just two different petticoats. (They're spilling out of my closets these days, I'm afraid.)
Love a good flammable chandelier ;) cute though!hehehe
thanks so much dear !
It's a little fussy, isn't it? Interesting idea. Could you use a gold lame skirt?
I really should have been born a drag queen, shouldn't I?
