Hey! great post!!
did you finish the installation? Please post a step-by-step instruction guide! my parts just came in, and im not sure whether to start by the socket and work my way to the center, or start at the center and branch off into the sockets!

Thanks!

I love this light, but am having huge problems with wiring! i’ve done it twice, once with the 26 gauge (against the advice of several electricians), and again with 20 gauge (very tight squeeze, especially in those swivel joints). Both times i had it working on the table, but once i mounted it, it shorted out. i think it’s just so easy for the insulation to get scraped by all those sharp edges, or for the wire to get twisted when you make adjustments (i was very careful to avoid twisting on my second try)… after many long hours, i’m about to throw in the towel. unless someone has advice on this. did you succeed in installing it?

Yes, they come flat and you must shape the shades however you like. A bit of a pain, but also lets you get a little more creative! Plus that way you can add more than one shade to drama.

I have every intention of buying this for my new apartment! I’m thinking… for the bathroom:)

But now I’m confused – is that how the shade comes? You need to hand assemble it?

We knew she liked to slide down the slide, but never thought about the swing. She was in heaven!
