let there be light!

Warning: There will likely be a huge influx of home project posts coming your way! I'm not even mad about it. Sam and I are ON A ROLL.

With some wedding gift cards we bought a clearance light fixture from Macy's (Pacific Coast brand) to replace our outdated (and ugly) fixture in the dining room. Due to the fact that we aren't electricians (and perhaps, we were being too lazy), the fixture sat in its box for a solid six months collecting dust.

Perhaps the mold issue was a blessing in disguise? The contractor we hired to patch our moldy drywall in the family room was able to install the light while he was here, which really brightened up my day (get it?)!

From drab to fab, if you will. The new light not only looks better cosmetically, it also gives up much brighter light. The light covers are more white than cream (like the previous), so it totally transforms the room. 

With that, I say... let there be light!
