Hi there! I have 3 identical swag lamps that I would like to hang at varying lengths, as a cluster. They have a bamboo "cage" around an off-white canvas cylinder. In any case. How does one hang multiple swag lamps together and accommodate all those cords and switches? I'm sure I would need one hook above each lamp, but then how do I deal with the rest of the cord- do I bunch them together before running them down to a power strip and just turn them all on individually? It just seems like no matter what, it is going to look tacky with all those cords running on the wall. How do people do this? I know I've seen it done before...
I forgot to upload the photo. Here is what they look like swag lamps ( photo / image / picture from DanielaHI's Garden )
I would try "braiding" the three cords and maybe that would help, but hey I don't have an interior designer bone in my body...lol just a thought!
hiding cords If you can bring the cords together, go get a piece of hallow type molding, paint or stain the same as the wall, glue it up over the cords with something like liquid nails, if you can run the wires to a corner, even better...hubby did something similar here for TV cables, cords etc. using cove molding see pic..

Depending how committed to the project you are, have an electrician wire them in the ceiling to a switch on the wall.
