What better than a pajama'ed gentleman swinging gracefully back and forth in the middle of your living room to make the statement, "I am an adult, and I have arrived." Unlike traditional chandeliers, which have too many lights and too few places to hang off of, this trapeze chandelier allows five models to lounge around and work up a sweat—an event you'd usually have to pay good money to see. Would we want one? Of course, but it's just a concept, meaning we're going to have to make a trip down to Home Depot this afternoon with some pencils and a crumpled-up piece of graph paper.

Trapeze Chandelier Really Spices Up Key Parties

Xmas is almost over. Use this tutorial to make an LED lamp from Christmas lights, which is a good way to get use out of them the other 11 months of the year. I'd hang it upside down as a DIY geek chandelier. Be Warned: The tutorial has some mind-numbing steps, like stripping out the LEDs from the Xmas light strand, and some complex wiring and soldering. Much like a professionally made chandelier, making something this ornate is going to be labor intensive. And maybe electrocute you. [Instructables]

Tentacle Chandeliers (To Class Up the Place)
By artist Adam Wallacavage, these "Pulsatilla" chandeliers are both a bit gorgeous and disturbing. But replace that light bulb with a vagina, and you have at least one Gizmodo writer's ultimate fantasy.
This particular model is sold out, but hit the jump to see more octopus/tentacle chandeliers.

Speaking as Star Trek fans, if we were rich enough to own a home that had a chandelier, we'd definitely get one of these Star Trek Enterprise models. It features a big lamp as the saucer section and three smaller bulbs as the nacelles. On second thought, the total inaccuracy of this thing (the Enterprise only had two nacelles, thank you, unless you're talking about the Future Enterprise from the last episode of TNG) makes us reconsider our purchase. Holy shit, we're huge dorks. [LampsUSA via Geekalerts via Boing Boing Gadgets]

Low Tech but Highly Delicious: Gummy Bear Chandelier
Part of an entire series of gummy bear sculptures by YaYa Chou, this chandelier looks both tasty and retro-chic. But we can't help but wonder how long it will hold up. It seems like only a matter of time before it's either devoured in a nostalgic munchie fit or melted by the light bulbs into a swirling, sticky rainbow of goop. Here's the real question, though: "Is she using Haribo, the one and only true brand of gummy bears?" Scope the close-up after the jump to check. More »
