Someone please buy all these supplies up and make this before I succumb to the desire! Somehow the farmhouse-style-country-style-urban-chicken-fresh-egg-thing is getting under my skin. I really want some chickens cluck-cluck-clucking in my yard. And rusty wire shade pendants by the backyard door. This is how trends work on you, work on you, work on you, they wear you down, until you want things you never wanted before.
From Rejuvenation, take a Burnside cloth-covered cord pendant. Very simple, just the cord and a vintage-looking lightbulb. The great thing is, you can choose from among 14 colors, from black to white to a variety of metal finishes:
You can also specify any length of cord you want. There are similar pendant cords sold in many places. This is a one-stop place for quality, customization and that key element — the vintagey bulb.

Or this from Etsy seller junkyardlighting:
Or this which was at terrain but this style isn’t there now, however it’s easily DIY’d as this basket style is easily found on Etsy. Probably eBay too but I found Etsy so fruitful I didn’t get to eBay. Or your local antique shops and malls.
So please-please-please feel free to take these before I can get to them, so I don’t wind up with one of these in our … I don’t even know where this would go … that’s why I can’t have one. Besides, someone has to leave some baskets for the eggs.
