Hooray for Chandeliers!

Guess what I have????? A NEW CHANDELIER!!!! And guess where it is????? HANGING FROM MY CEILING!!!!!!!!!! Yay!



So as many of you know, I have been chandelier shopping for the past few months. Ill give you the short version, and perhaps save the long version for another post. You know, so we can just get right to the good stuff!

I decided that I had enough of the landlord's dated fixture, and I would get my own chandelier. (Don't worry, the landlord's fixture is resting safety in bubble wrap in the attic.)



I had shopped online, and looked around at some stores, and was kind of on-the-fence about what type to get, what color to get, and about how much I really wanted to spend! (yikes!)

But I jumped right off that fence when I was stopped dead in my tracks at the "store" section of a house tour I went on this spring. Had I found it? Had I finally found my chandelier????



I contemplated, I paced, I measured, I lingered.....Yes I think this is what I want! It was so dreamy!!!! So I raced home to measure the ceiling and the table and......hooray it would fit! Sold!

I bought it a while ago and finally got it hung up this weekend! Feast your eyes kids! Feast your eyes on my dreamy chandelier! : ) YAY!





It does look a bit over-the-top, but I guess that means I just need to class up the rest of this joint to follow suit! (And I know it looks a little weird scooped over to the side, but it just makes the most sense to have it centered on the table!)





Whoa, so much for the short version! Who wants to come over and dine under the new chandelier!?!?!?!
