Baskets? Pots? Jars? Birdcages? Not the first things that I think of when considering lighting for my home. Here are some creative and economical conversation pieces that bring light and whimsy into a space-

I'm not one to mess with wires and electricity, but with the hanging light kits that can be purchased at hardware stores (and ikea), pretty much the sky's the limit-- collanders, tupperware, doily art, tin cans with pin holes... I think I've seen it all. If you want it hanging from your ceiling, it's possible! When it comes to installation though, be safe and hand it over to a professional electrician. No need to look like this ;)--
