Pink Paris 2
 
What if, just by pointing towards the ceiling, you could remind your guests that you’re on a first-name basis with dread Cthulhu? You never know—it might come in handy the next time one of your relatives praises Bill O’Reilly, wonders when you’ll get “a real job,” or tells you to turn down the Sleaford Mods. Until you can put in that trap door that opens on an alligator pit, why not see what you can do with one of these apotropaic ceiling decorations, a shrug, and a slight roll of the eyes?

Philadelphia-based artist Adam Wallacavage started making these octopus-shaped chandeliers in 2001, “‘cause I had no money, and plaster was cheap.” Speaking as your personal stylist, don’t you think one of these might really tie the room together?
