where to hang your faux kill

  When I got the antler chandelier I had visions of hanging it in my dining room or my son's bedroom and have it look uber cool. I did have some second guesses about the dining room- was the chandelier big enough?... would it fit with the decor?.... huh...  then I thought- is this neighborhood ready for an antler chandelier in the dining room.... would I be making apologies for it later???  AHHHH!  then I decided to place in Tucker's bedroom- it would be SO cool- what little boy has a chandelier like that in his room?  No one!  that is- no one but my son ;)

So Eric (the most amazing handyman ever) comes over yesterday to hang it up and guess what?  It is too tall for the room!  I was so disappointed.  So then Eric and I walk around the house looking for a home for said antler chandelier.  Foyer?  nope- too long.  Staircase?  nope- too hard to get to.   Last but not least- the KITCHEN!  I gotta say... i love it!

Hanging of the Antlers 













Next thought is to put a dimmer on the switch- this thing is BRIGHT (which I like) but who doesn't love some mood lighting?

  1. I really love your faux kill and think it looks great in your kitchen. Too funny about whether or not the neighborhood is ready for one - cause I know where you live! Did you get the email about the trip to High Point?
