I really like the idea behind Tulip, and also think the lamp is very aesthetically pleasing and fits our home's vibe. I did however end up drilling the ring into the ceiling because it felt like it wouldn't stick well enough with just tape, which sort of is against the product's promise. I was slightly disappointed in that, but once we got it up I've loved the lamp and overall very happy, and would probably buy again from Tulip.

Love the idea, love the designs, but really ran into some issues out here in Hawaii where all the ceilings are popcorn. Drilling was my only option and def came with some asbestos. Just kind of wished this was mentioned in the FAQ.

What an innovative product! I see lighting as the most make-or-break aspect of creating a cozy, visually pleasing living environment. When you're a renter, obviously it can be challenging to deal with the hideous overhead lighting situations you're stuck with. Tulip is a great solution - the design I chose, Gem Fern, has a nice pop of color from the green piping but is still neutral enough to work in any space. The fabric is sturdy and high quality, though it definitely needs a quick steam for a more polished look prior to installation. While I'm impressed with the quality of the shade cover, I'm not sure it's worth the full price for everyone - it depends on how important the impact of the lighting in your space is to you.

We have one of those classic landlord special nipple ceiling lights in our bedroom. After living in our rental for four years, it was certainly time for an upgrade. The tulip looks so cute! We got one with "fern" trim since our room decor is very green friendly. I love the size and the drop on it and that it softens the light. Maybe we'll actually use the overhead now. I wish the green trim went all the way around the bottom (see photo), but honestly, I'll take it how it is.
