We've seen a few versions of jelly and cake mould lights before, but I think what I like about these is that they are all tin. Most I've seen in the past have been from the coloured plastic type. Together this set makes a whimsical grouping. From Elle Decoration South Africa | Photo: Yann Deret | Compiled by Mandy Allen. (How to: They suggest getting your local electrician to assist you with adapting the moulld into a light. Here is a link to how to cut with tin snips if you need to - some of the moulds have openings on the bottom already; also here is a link to making a pendant light for more reference).

I love it :)
I love the design of the South African creatives. I wish I could get the Elle Magazine SA in Germany. So many inspirations. The lights are just brilliant.
I love how the lights are industrial and yet homey because they're made out of things used for baking.
i've seen a lot of colored plastic ones that look a little kitsch. i like these!
genius!
Yna - I bought mine online on Zinio.com - which i think you can access also - they have a Germany link - and I think you can just search for it there.
Maria + Jeanee - I know - isn't it great?
Julia - so true - kitschy is the perfect description for the coloured ones.
These are really cute, a great idea to brighten up a room!
Your blog is so nice and inspiring!! I love it!
Inspired- so i made one, with the help of my man! Did not found the original Post on ELLE Decoration. If you like to see my version, a light in a traditional german cake mould, you can take a look here:
