You did the reflection using an image, so the ornaments could reflect the image right? or what

I did use hdri for this one.
@DJBlazer- Yeah, I was hoping that I could get away with that one and thought it wouldn't be that big a problem since it looked like the ceiling of the building was circular anyway, but its an easy fix.

Think I would lower the reflectivity and add a fresnell effect to it, and poss a very, very slight bump.

I wouldent bother with maxwell for 2 spheres with a reflection and a plane, bit over kill, learn one render before jumping for the "make cool" button
I would also just use a blinn, dunno but I feel I get a lot more control.

Also it will get your understanding of shaders up too, with the fresnell ramps etc.
