Lighting UPGRADE

WE BOUGHT A GEODESIC HOUSE!! Like, a totally ’70’s DOME HOME, people!

It is a work in progress, and I have to say, I am really excited about what fantastic BEFORE and AFTER pics I will have to share in the coming months….and years..

 

It is really BROWN….everything outside is BROWN, all the sheds, all the decks, the roof, the garage….and I have to admit, I am not a fan of BROWN, so that will be changing….

It’s on the list

It’s a very long list

The first thing I DECLARED would change upon moving into this very brown house was the light fixture in the dining area…

I Imagined I would rip it out, and smash it to bits in a fit of joy & renovation, but then I had a THOUGHT…….

“WHAT if this is the first thing I SAVE?”

~This thing~

 

So I decided I would save it’s life, and make it into something much more

BEAUTIFUL, which is kinda my thing

I went to Target, and Marshall’s in search of a Giant basket, or outdoor lawn ornament, or Hurricane lamp that could act as a large shade to go over the ugliest part of this fixture, and Marshall’s won with a GIANT basket that was just about right

I brought it home, ripped off the bottom, and found my jute twine, and got to WORK making the chain & wiring look more modern/nautical
