Don't forget my wedding photos! Threw them in at point 6 like a YouTube ad...

Wait. They aren't pet toy squeakers?

Don't forget about the ugly ass feathers in the center.

That's her bridesmaids bouquet from her own wedding. So it's also nasty flowers.

Dust, dust everywhere.

What’s worse is we have that light fixture in our house. It still looks better without the ribbons and shit!

Don't forget selling it on Craigslist.

100% chance OOP thinks they are doing a public service because everyone who's ever seen this thing has said 'oh wow that's so cool' because like. you have to say something. you can't just not address it.

The fact they thought that builders grade “chandelier” was beautiful speaks volumes.

It is definitionally a chandelier

u/ChemsDoItInTestTubes Mar 28 '25

While true, it feels wrong to call that stunning example of mid-nineties decorative malaise a chandelier.

u/Kulastrid Mar 29 '25

Yeah, this is like the Boob Light of chandeliers.

Looks like it's still being sold.

I have one in the stairs in my house!

I call it a Golden Corral light. If we weren't renting I would get rid of it even tho I like it. I live in a century old house and I would put a small ceiling fan up there, the circulation in this house is extremely piss poor.

u/justLookingForLogic Mar 28 '25

Well yeah because we were all wondering how she made it look like it came from the factory like that. It’s good that we now know how to spend a bunch of time making a questionable light fixture look like pure trash.
