Mad-Hatter Bedroom

chatelaine

Love the playfulness that this wicker-hat chandelier gives to this room that I recently came across in the May '09 issue of Chatelaine magazine. The magazine recently featured the home of Wendy Williams Watt, the (*former) owner of the Vancouver decor shop, Liberty. This is her daughter's room and I love how the black polka-dot/pom-pom-esque bedspread and wicker blinds all pull together with the lighting to create such an awesome space. Unfortunately there isn't a source for the chandelier, only that it was purchased when her daughter was a baby. Photography by Kim Christie. (If anyone knows the source, please leave a comment - thank you). Thanks to reader, Tajmahill we now know the source for the hat chandelier! It's from Lampa! And it comes in different varieties from floorlamp to sconce! Awesome! Thank you!

(*Thank you Anon for the correction notice).

I believe that Liberty carried that chandelier years ago -- but Liberty hasn't been owned by Wendy Williams Watt for some time now. Five years? Maybe more.

Still a great shop, now on Broadway, but missing that certain "Wendy" touch since she's been gone.

Great bedroom!

he he, i love the pom pom bedspread. It reminds me of Heather's red comforter with little bows on it in the old movie Heathers...

Love the overall whimsical feel to the room that the hat lampshades add. I could imagine just lying in bed all day gazing at those lampshades and dreaming of wonderland!

Wonderful that you found another source for the lights -- nice work, Tajmahill!

Jan ... have a peek at the "corrections" notice on this site:

Wendy is runs her design consultant company "Grace" in Kitsilano, on Maple Street (Vancouver) ... for any of us who just can't live without that Wendy "Je ne sais quoi"!
