Updating a dated chandelier Updating a dated 1980's brass chandelier  turned out more "fun" than I originally thought. And by fun I mean; I thought I was brilliant and would totally be able to paint this dated brass thing into a treasure that we would want to keep forever. ...

Going to be a lot going on for me today so this post....is high on pic's and low on chatter. I got a new score from my local Habitat for Humanity Store getting hung up today (a new chandelier), I'm on the hunt for outdoor pillows to add to my porch and I've got some more decorating/cleanup outdoors to do. Wish me luck! ...

Scored at my local thrift store! What do ya think??? Can you see the possibilities? I took a chance that it would work, but for just a few bucks ?I had to!  I know a lot of people may like brass chandeliers. But. I. Am. Not. One. Of. Them. It would have made a expensive candle holder if it didn't work, it'd be real pretty candle holder. But I was hoping it be a nice addition to my dining room, you know, using electricity. I think it turned out pretty good if I do say so myself. My sister and hubby thought I was crazy for buying it at a thrift store. It's difficult getting a pic of it at nite just minutes after hubby has wired and hung it.  But here she is! Insert your favorite concerto music here. Or a really good Sinatra song, your choice.    She is a keeper! XO, Christine ...
