u/Commercial-Aspect420

I got this IKEA SINNERLING lamp shade from FB Marketplace that I’d like to hang in my bedroom, but it didn’t come with any cords. I also realized that my light is considered a “flush light mount” or whatever. (sorry, i’m not an electrician.)

So, I’m wondering what kind of conversion kit or adapter I need to make this work as a hanging pendant? The base (or frame?) has a tiny hole so it won’t work with a light bulb extender.

There’s also about 6ft from the ceiling to the top of my mattress, so I want to be mindful of how low it can go.

Thanks!!
