I bought lamps to hang over the dining table. Which I’ve been wanting to do for years, but been put off by the hassle of having to find an electrician and figuring out how to hang them and whatnot. Now I have them, and it’s great.

The lamps have clearly spent a bit of time in a cardboard box, so the cables are all slightly wonky and the lamps hang just a little bit askew. I probably wouldn’t even notice, but they hang just at eye height, so I see the light of some of the lamps but not of the others, because they’re tilted away. It makes them look broken. I hope the cables even out with time and the weight of the lamps themselves. Otherwise, maybe a hairdryer could make them relax?
