Go to the hardware store and buy a simple 'globe base' fixture, the little holes that are supposed to hold on the globe are perfect for wiring up your pendant. Just make sure whatever you buy has a receptacle that will fit through that little hole in the pendant!Sara @ Russet Street Renohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18120089301670852587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4149136651520192500.post-19623043944153939702010-01-29T08:50:49.614-08:002010-01-29T08:50:49.614-08:00Question: So you did not use the World Market cord...Question: So you did not use the World Market cord kit to install this light?
