Kitchen Chandelier Update

Hello Everyone!

Back in October, I purchased this brass chandelier below, for $10 at the Habitat for Humanity Restore.  My plan was to replace the current kitchen light.      

 

Because the brass had to go, I painted the chandelier and you can read all about the transformation here.   Pictured below is what it looked like after I painted it and hung it in the kitchen. 

This is what was hanging in the kitchen before I replaced it with the new “to me” chandelier.

I started to dismantle it and realized that I didn’t take a picture so you get to see it all lop sided.

My plans were to replace the lamp socket covers and add glass chimney globes on the new chandelier.  

Well, I finally got around to those plans and have replaced the lamp socket covers and added glass chimney globes.         

 

  I ordered both the lamp socket covers and the glass chimney globes from Amazon. 

The cost for updating the chandelier in the kitchen was $47.80.  The glass chimney globes were the biggest expense.  I paid $7.60 for each one and the lamp socket covers were $1.98 a piece.      

   For $57.80 which includes the cost of the chandelier, I couldn’t be happier with my new “to me” chandelier in the kitchen. 

As always, thanks for visiting and your sweet comments.  They always make my day.
