Light fixture update

As you can see from some of the early photos, the house came with lovely contractor-grade light fixtures throughout. Most were brass colored (not my favorite), gaudy, and just plain ugly. My favorite was the florescent box in the kitchen. Ick. So right away we found some new kitchen fixtures for a low low price of $45 bucks for the pair (awesome clearance sale at Target!). They are the same style as the "optic pendant light" at Restoration Hardware, but in our price-range.


We splurged a little on our entryway light because we wanted something unique and loved this one from Schoolhouse Electric. We went cheap with the hallway fixtures and used some stock lights from Home Depot in a similar style. New lights sure make a huge difference in the feel of a place. Well worth the effort!
