It's the Little Things

Sometimes, all it takes is something small!

This last week, Matt was able to install some light fixtures around the house.  After living with blaring flourescents and bare bulbs, it's fun to see how pretty things are with just a simple, inexpensive light fixture installed to cover up the bare bulb!

He put a new fixture in our hallway

And we FINALLY fixed the hanging lamp over our dining room table.  When we first bought our house, 10 years ago, there was a hanging lamp.  But it eventually died, and being a scandanavian IKEA or some such purchase, we had no way of getting ahold of replacement parts.  So for years, it has been a hideously ugly plastic and wire mess hanging from our ceiling.  But it is ugly no longer! :)



Granted, it did take hours for Matt to crawl around in our filthy attic space and try to figure out the rather.... unique... wiring that was put in to this house some 50ish years ago.  But he did it, and everything works! ;)
