I adore lanterns too...They give such a great look...I adore your selection...Especially the last one. So stunning! Kisses and enjoy your day my lovely :)
I am loving the square lanterns! And...I think I'm ok with waiting to SATC =) I did go to the theatre last year but it was because we put cosmos in our water bottles ;)
I love lanterns with candles for al fresco dining, for hallways as you featured, for kitchens above islands and for speacial nooks (in our playroom my son's nook has one waiting the completion of the rest of the project....which I'll show once done) Great post!
Oh it seems the day of lanterns today! A few hours ago I saw also a post about lanterns on Nest Egg blog! I love the lanterns! Simetimes we really should hang a lantern instead of a chandelier. xx Greet
SO GOOD. You are soo, soo good! We are planning a renovation for a bigger, better mudroom, laundry, etc...I love the one of the 2 oversize lanterns in what appears to be a mudroom. That will be going in "the file"!
ooooohhhhh, that bedroom. that second to last image, that bedroom! that is a WOWIE room for me. LOVE that. WANT that room. good find!! all of them though, great images. i too dig lanterns. :)
These pictures are all so inspiring. Who would have thought that lanterns could be so fabulous? I really love how large the last one is over that dining room table. I can’t even describe the feeling it gives off; but I do love it : ) have a fabulous day my lady! XO
My excuse for having way too many lanterns is that I live in a subdivision called "Lantern Bay"! Love Love Love Lanterns!!!!!!! Great post with beautiful images and one fabulous quote :) xo
I love lanterns! They remind me of romance and The Little Prince. I always take so many pictures of them when I see them on vacation. I would love to have a house filled with lanterns. It would be so magical.
I have honestly never thought about using lanterns for interior decorating but love the look! Kind of a fresh take on the chandelier. xxoo Josie http://winksmilestyle.blogspot.com
Lanterns add such a different ambience to ordinary lamps. Right now it's so warm + I'm longing for the perfect outdoor space with a lovely to enjoy warm breezy evenings...
I love these! It's so funny, we had a lantern like this in our foyer when I was little, I never paid much attention to it, but now it's super-chic! That is pretty much the story of my life, lol!
That's such a good quote; it's from The House of Mirth, right? Love that book. And love these pictures with lanterns - what a great alternative to chandeliers!
oooh those are quite lovely indeed! i thought you were going to be talking about the paper ones, ha! my son has one in his room and i want to do magenta ones at my wedding. but these are really beautiful; i'm updating all of the lighting in my condo soon and i'll definitely consider one!
What a wonderful line up! I wonder a little how good they are over a dining table, but they are surely wonderful to look at! I love them in hallways, so gorgeous!
Oh, I hear you over here in Seattle! I especially like the large, simple square ones. No, wait - can that be true???! I thought I was all for round objects! You are changing my taste and style, girlie! And it is all for the better!
I adore lanterns, especially the old french ones which are re wired. Great photos!!

The lanterns are all lovely, but I'm especially lost in admiration of the unusual floor-lamp in the 6th image. Oh to have one of those.
