There are two chandeliers, and I immediately wanted to take them down and replace them. We went to Ikea, we went to hardware stores, we even went to a habitat for humanity store where we found tons of our exact same lights that other people deemed unworthy. While we were house hunting I really wanted to get the Ikea Maskros. http://pinterest.com/pin/138626494749483574/<br />That is even why we went to Ikea. I had been seeing them online and thought they were just beautiful but when we walked into Ikea they had them all over the friggen place. Immediately I couldn't bring myself to buy it. It became too popular and the fact that Ikea was even trying to cash in on that by shoving it down their customers throat was not lost on me. It's sad, even looking for the link again and seeing it for the first time in months makes me still wish we had it. I want something that looks new, fresh and bright, but I don't want something that is trendy and will look dated in a year or two. robayrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10888891487660838256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8762626668776711100.post-37242168451773096612012-09-28T13:52:47.728-05:002012-09-28T13:52:47.728-05:00I'd say that preparing a house for sale could ...I'd say that preparing a house for sale could be at least as time consuming as blogging, not to mention an etsy shop. You seem to be managing wonderfully! I could probably take a lesson or two from you myself. We could use some more attractive light fixtures in this house, too, so I'd love to see what you find :)melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16698231692999838673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8762626668776711100.post-44265748060216478162012-09-28T12:34:50.255-05:002012-09-28T12:34:50.255-05:00Oh I am right there with you!
