Yeah I do actually. I think they'd look even better against a pink toned wall!

I was actually thinking once we can paint the walls I would do something like that!
I am so on the fence about these lights though! DH is saying we have to keep them now 🙄

I like them. You could consider adjusting the lengths of the cords so they don't hang so low if you feel they're a bit OTT

Agree with other poster that painting the wall (plaster room pink by F&B would be fab) would help to break the room up a little

I can’t decide Whether I do or don’t!

Id definitely live with them for a bit and see how I felt when I’d painted.

Agreed! It feels so clinical white right now but we are just waiting for everything to settle before we paint.

I like them... would like to see a pic with the lights on too

Exactly the same as me!!!! I reckon I am going to have to try and live with them for a while and then see! They were on sale and convinced myself they would work really well 🙈

I think they are lovely, like bubbles or balloons! I see what you mean about too much stark white, but as a pp mentioned, a hint of colour in the walls will help. Can just see a lovely runner in a pretty colour on the table, with flowers too maybe. Gorgeous!

I like them but the positioning seems off. It might be the picture, but a longer table or lights a bit closer for me...love the f&b paint idea.

Thank you... they do look better with the lights on I think

I don't but then none of it is to my taste.

Aww thank you, yes you are right I think that will make all the difference. That's what I thought they would be... like little clouds!

They look a little bit low, but I'm probably just used to seeing things through the lens of a 6'4 husband. I don't mind them. I'm not keen on the rest of the furniture though, so our tastes are clearly different and I'm not sure my opinion is very useful to you!

I appreciate it nonetheless!! Thank you

OP, if you’re not sure then just keep them - it’s not worth the cost (money, time, waste) of replacements unless you have somewhere else they’d go.

They are definitely low.... that was the other issue I had.

They look like bunches of balloons. Not keen, I'm afraid.

Yes that's very true and have nowhere else for them to go. May have to grin and bear for now and see how it is when we paint!

I love them but the walks definitely need to be painted to set them off. Too much white.

I like them, but think one over the table would look better than 2
