Toss in the dumpster? I purchased this very creepy-looking light from deep in a garage in Edina 6 years ago, which I believe originally came from IKEA.
Attempting to add some light to the sunk-in kitchen room this light has hung for years. I believe it has only further contributed to that sunk-in feeling.
I have been waiting for a kitchen-remodel sort of excuse to use my sacred Hirshfields gift card—yes, all $100 smackers!! (Actually I completely lost it and all this packing up of EVERYthing from the main floor into a POD allowed me to find it.)
I head off to officially use the gift card. It is time. It is time to reap the benefits of my claim to fame.
Bingo!! Lucky me! They have my shade of blue. (Btw, no one recognized me…)
And more luck—it’s a bazillion degrees out here mid-winter. So I can play outside….
Ready??
Before
and
Thee After.
Wah-lahhh!!! And WOWZA!!!
So glad this didn’t get tossed in the heap! Yay!
Love that I like!

I’m so impressed you kept it all these years just to do something fabulous with it! It was all in your plan…all in your great plan
gorgeous. can’t wait to see it in it new home.
I forgot to ask – where will this beauty be going????
I am thinking over our kitchen table, that side doesn’t have recessed lights; so I need some wattage.
This whole issue of lights is harder than i thought it would be. I kept finding things I liked, but they had just have one measly bulb. So this one coming together is so fun! Both form and function! Yay!
Oh HONEY!!! You did right by this ole chandy! It’s gorgeous!!! It inspires me to do the same with one of mine!
