Welcome to Rusted Chandelier!
Our shop was founded with a passion for your home and your happiness.
How it Started
Years ago, when this shop was just a dream, Patti's son asked what name she was going to choose. “Well, I love to bring the old and new together,” she told him. “You know, like — a rusted chandelier!” That vision has stayed true. We believe in treasuring what you already have and love. Then, mix in new touches that bring a smile to your face. In addition to home decor, wall decor, and other boutique favorites, Rusted Chandelier offers in-home decorating services to beautify your space for the holidays and year-round.
Family Owned and Operated
Since we opened our doors in 2012, Rusted Chandelier has always been a family-operated business. My husband Bob, our daughter Katherine, and our son Brian have each helped tremendously. Whether it’s going to market, recording our how-to videos, or supporting our constant feed of treasures on Instagram, bringing the Rusted Chandelier aesthetic to life is truly a team effort!
Friends are always Near
When you come to Rusted Chandelier, you’ll also see a selection of items hand-picked by two of my dear friends: Carol Temple with Pizazz 2 Interiors, and Diann Bosworth with dbee creative. Diann’s items are sprinkled throughout the shop, and her hand-printed items are always a hit. Carol’s great taste is on display in the rear of the shop, next to her studio.
