I found this pendant in an online wholesale catalog and I love the beachy vibe it gives off. It reminds me of a clam basket. Two of these hanging over a white kitchen bar would be fabulous!
Speaking of kitchen lighting, oh how I would LOVE this chandelier for my kitchen! Too bad this chandelier comes with a $300 price tag :(. If you have any home improvement tips on how to create this beauty, feel free to send them my way!

This kitchen light reminds me a bit of my own…only much, much better!

Doesn’t this light have a bee-hive vibe to it. This eating area is dreamy…the wood ceiling, the bench seating, the mirror? window? It’s gorgeous.

What I love about basket/cage lighting is that it can look modern, country, industrial, transitional, etc. depending on how it’s done. This is a DIY birdcage light that is very shabby chic.

I have long admired these pendants from Serena and Lilly. I think they are such fab compliments to the fish quilts! When I redo my boys’ bedroom, I would love to incorporate this look.

Hi i am looking for the 5 baskets. Lighting???
Where CAN you buy it?????
Any website???? Thanks
Thanks for including my ‘country’ basket chandy light. In Canada, it’s an apple basket but what’s in a name. Nice post.
Totally agree with the versatile nature of this cage/basket chandeliers, they can be placed anywhere in any home style. The $300 kitchen chandelier above can be done easily, don’t you agree? It can even have some artificial vines to complete the look.
Can someone spare us all the sleepless nights and tell us who sells the $300 chandelier?! Its killing me….hahaha
🙂
Beth,
I am doing a lighting post today and in my search I found this post and so I am linking over to you.

Please please someone tell me they found the source of that $300 bucket plank chandelier???
Love them all! Thanks for sharing.
Wow. You put a lot of time in this post with all the beautiful photos. Love it!
I would love love love to know the soure of the 5 basket chandelier. I would love even more to know how to make it… any one attempt it, let me know. I'm just not sure where the wiring is since it is hung by rope???
Okay first of all, I've missed popping in to see you because I've been in a haze of boxes and bubble wrap… but second of all, HOW DID YOU know I needed a post on hanging light fixures? I'm trying to find the right one for our new house because the current owners are taking a chandelier in the kitchen and I need to replace it with something! Pronto!
Yes, please share source of the 5 basket chandelier for $300! Love it!!
Good stuff, Beth! Lots of great ideas… makes you start looking around at all the light fixtures in your home!!
Those are very cool and I happen to think that yours looks much better than the one above! You go girl!!!
So very cute my Aunt in Italy has one for years, They live in a farm house, I have always told her that I want it when she is done with it… But I think that's not going to happen.

My favorite is definitely the one made from a board. It wouldn't even be too difficult to knock off, as wiring up bulb sockets is super-simple, and an old board and thick manilla rope are easy to come by. The electrical parts could be purchased easily enough in the lamp section of a home improvement store, and there are plenty of how-to sites on wiring a lamp.
I'll be you could knock that fixture off for less than $100. Easy. Maybe even $50 . . .
Those are so wonderful! I too love the $300 one! Sigh….maybe someday! 🙂 Thank you for the inspirations!
LOOOOOVE THIS!!!! thanks!!
I didn't think that I would ever like basket lights but I DO, I DO like them!
and I will put them here, and there, say, I will put them everywhere!
I LOVE THESE! Meant to tell you the first time you posted them, but I really, really love them! genius!

I've lived in my house for two years now and for two years, I've wanted to do a basket pendant light in my half bath (similar to the style in the photo of the white kitchen). Have I gotten around to it yet? Nope. 😉 I will someday, I guess.
I love that outdoor design! That looks pretty easy to do.
Such wonderful inspiration.
There is certainly charm found with basket/cage lighting. Love your inspiration pics.
Nice roundup of pics..you are right, this is a big trend. I realized it especially when we went to the maison and objet show in Paris, they were everywhere..and of course looked smashing in all the prettiest displays. I happen to like them for the right room, really cozy and modern looking.
Love love this! I adore basket lighting and have been on the lookout for some unusual baskets lately. Great post 🙂
Happy Friday!

Oh my goodness, what an inspiring bunch of lights!
Where did you find that $300 one? SO PRETTY!
WOW! These are some really cool ideas. I love the chandy w/ the dangling spoons – priceless! =)
Love this look too. You are so right about just how versatile it is. I love how delicately industrial these fixtures can be. Thanks for sharing!
Hmmm… I think I saw all the making for that outdoor chandelier at the Dollar Tree the last time I was there. Might have to make a run out there tomorrow!
I love so many of those fixtures, but especially the first one! Thanks for sharing.

Wow, what a fun post to look at, to be honest I've never given these fixtures a whole lot of thought, but love them!

Love the bird cages!
