But, with a little more time and research, I think that I found some pretty cool options.  Check them out:



















And then I explored overhead lighting options with a similar basket type feel.  I love what Lee Kleinhelter used in her son's nursery...

And, if you are looking for a less expensive route, try Ikea!






If you want to take it a step further and make your own overhead basket pendant, check out this DIY from Two Ellie.  Here is what she came up with:



I'm impressed.
