Hanging Lanterns - I just finished an interior lighting project [Pics]

Thanks!

I went with the white LEDs because we had a variety of colored glass in the lanterns, some of which are cool colors (blue and green on the far right two lanterns, for instance.) An amber light would likely mess with the blue glass, creating a dimmer/unbalanced warm light. I Finding enough different lanterns was kind of a long process, and each one was* worried about the harshness of the light, thus the addition of a dimmer to the circuit. However, being indirect and mostly encased in metal, it is not nearly as harsh as I expected - the picture is taken at full brightness.

The lanterns were collected from various thrift stores and clearance sales in passing over the course of a couple months. Some of them did need repair, and one in particular didn't seem sturdy enough to hang its own weight. (Either that, or I was just addicted to soldering at the time. Even odds on that one.)
