New Lighting in Our Foyer

Have you ever fallen in love with a price tag?  That’s how I found our new light for the foyer.

 

 

Of course, I had to Instagram a picture (while I was at a local thrift store) so you all could tell me this was meant to be before I bought it.  (It’s like shopping with friends.)  I had always thought we’d put some kind of drum pendant to replace the small lantern that was there.  But, an already-painted, pagoda chandelier for $34 quickly changed my vision for the space.

 

 

 (I’ve put this lantern in storage to paint later.  I think it might work somewhere else in our house.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I also had to make sure that whatever we put up didn’t compete with the large lantern (that I spray painted) in our home office, since it’s all pretty much one big space.

 

 

 

What’s the last great deal you’ve found for your house?
