return it and find one w/longer cord or the bars. you'd have to take yours apart in order to even attempt making it longer, which will look stupid.

thanks beth. unfortunately i purchased these a while back for my remodel and have exceeded the return policy. will have to figure out a way to use them. thanks for your quick response!

ok, well, put them elsewhere, or sell them, take a short loss, and find something else. you can't lengthen them unless you take them to a lighting expert who can remove the canopy in order to put on a longer cord or metal rod.

I don't know how expensive they were, but trying to lengthen them will just add more cost and prob not look right anyway. try and find a new pendant w/at least 72"

Rewiring them with longer cord is relatively easy, and you can have it done by a lighting shop, but how do you plan to extend the rod that supports the light?

hi bruce
there is no rod, just 54” of flexible black plastic cord from the canopy to the top of the fixture.
if i can unscrew the brushed nickel piece, which i should be able to considering that’s how i change the bulb, i am hopeful that i can get to the internal wiring. just wondering which kind of wire to purchase. seems possible. i may use one of the smaller pendants as my test sample before i rewire the others. thanks for your reply!

Rewiring is easy and if you are not comfortable doing it take it to a lighting store .

@goldtooth, did you ever figure out how to extend the cord? i'm running into a similar issue and wondering if it's worth it to rewire or if i need to give up on those lights. If you had to have it professionally done, do you remember what they charged? Thanks!
