Hi,I did the following:
How to change a light bulb on chandelier where bulbs are facing up?I live in house with 2 story foyer. In that foyer I have a chandelier with few light bulbs that I need to change. The height is approximately 16 feet. The problem is that the light bulbs are facing up so devises like light bulb changers with long poll will not work. Being on the on the second floor - it is closer to the chandelier but still out of reach. Anybody can suggest an effective solution on how to change a light bulbs in my case without hiring a contractor?

Any contractor who installed that fixture is an idiot. I run into that problem and refuse to install something that cannot be serviced. If you do not have the safe eqpt to reach the bulbs then you shouldn't attempt it yourself.
That said, try this. Purchase one of those screw drivers that is flexible and can be used in any position. Jury rig this to your bulb changing stick. The best bet is to change the fixture to one that is more suitable to the location and the problem is gone forever.

Well, if you don't have scaffolding, then maybe you could rent it or borrow from a friend. Then, change the bulbs to the compact flourescent bulbs b/c not only are they more energy efficient, but they last something like 7 times longer than regular bulbs; so you won't have to go through this again any time soon.

Get an 8 foot stepladder. If you stand on the top of it you should be able to reach the bulbs
