Gold Chandelier No More

A friend of mine showed me a blog site that I have just fallen in love with and can't get enough of.  It's called Better After. Fellow blog readers will email in before and after pictures of something they re-did and she then posts it to her blog. I decided it was time I try something of the sort...so I did.

The kitchen in our house has never been updated since the house was built in '95.  There are many things I would love to change and remodel...but when you are saving for a wedding, it's very hard.  Since we won't be remodeling for about a year from now...I decided to make some areas more appealing to the eye and we started with the chandelier light over the kitchen table.

Before as a gaudy gold chandelier:

With a little spray paint and Tate's labor of taking down and putting back up...we have this!!!

Next item on the list...entry room chandelier.  Can't wait :)

Happy St. Patricks Day for all you Irish folks reading this.  Here is the view outside my work window of the parade...
