chandelier


This is one of our latest project. We have wanted a chandelier for the dining room. We had taken down the old fan-light and it was just waiting for a new light.




Tom and I had looked at a couple of places that had chandeliers. Mostly what we saw was too ornate, large, and costly. Then I saw a post of someone who had ordered on line from herehttp://www.gallery802.com/productlist.aspx?Category=2, it wasn't expensive, the order came quickly, and she was pleased with her chandelier. Sounded perfect to me. The dining room isn't very big and has only an 8 feet ceiling so I went on line and found what we were looking for. We ordered it on Monday and it arrived on Thursday.



The only downside is that we needed to do some assembling(which we knew before hand) and of course wiring to hang it up. There were instructions, but they didn't have a lot of detail on them. Love that they included a glove, so that you wouldn't get fingerprints on the crystal...too funny!




We did figure it all out and got it hung up in less than 2 hours. The hardest part was for me to hold it up while Tom did the wiring!



Our dining room furniture is large, so now we are trying to decide if we needed a bigger chandelier. We will live with this for a while and see what we think. If we do decide to go bigger on the chandelier, we will just move this one some place else... because I love it!
