Help me find a hot air balloon light for nursery?

We're currently decorating the nursery for our first child and we are desperately looking for a hot air balloon ceiling light for the room, but have had no luck so far.

I started with this one but was gutted to find that it's just a decoration and not a light. I don't think my skills are up to adapting it to be a light and even if they were I'd be worried I'd make it a fire hazard!

There are loads of this type of paper shade around but (although OH think they're ok), I'm being overly fussy and am not keen.

I quite like this one but again am not 100% sure of it. I basically think I got carried away by the model one I saw first and nothing is going to live up tp that now!

Anybody seen anything they think might suit? Please safe me from incessant disappointing google searches!

By the way, I'm in the SE but would be willing to travel a bit (or force OH to) for the perfect balloon.

Thanks in advance!

Here's a couple of more basic ones, I've seen in store

Sorry I don't know how to do clicky links on my iPad. They may be a bit simple, but at a great price. Could tide you over until you find something perfect. Think they also have 20% off atm too.

Will keep an eye out for others for you.

Thanks November. I quite like the second one (and could possibly add bits to it quite easily) but unless they do other colours in store the pink is probably not for us - we have an uncooperative baby that had its legs firmly shut at our scan so are awaiting a surprise.

OH has his heart set on a balloon shaped one so the first isn't quite right either.

Personally I'm ready to throw in the towel and go with something else but it's the one thing OH desperately wants for the baby's room so I'll persevere a bit longer....
