Re: My Big Fat Renovation
Did a little more today. Spent most of the day "shopping."
We went to a real lighting store today, very nice stuff in there. Don't think I've ever set foot in one before. We got 10% off and picked up the sweet chandelier in the pic for only $120. Also went to Lowes to pick up the rest of the trim for the wainscoting. Picked up a ceiling medallion? for the ceiling too.
I got the chandelier up. The dining room table will be 30", so I did the 36" "thing" above that, with it 66" off the floor, and it just didn't look right. With the open-ness of the room to the rest of the house, especially looking over the staircase into the dining room, it just looked really "wrong." We both decided it looked like poo, so I moved it to where it will be 6' off the floor, or 42" off of the table.
