Now this is not the worst chandy that I have ever seen, however it really is a builder basic and doesn't do much to add to the decorative ambiance of the breakfast room. Actually this is the one the builder put in the dining room. The previous one here was really sad.
I have looked for quite some time to find one that I really liked, and then finally saw this one. Very reasonably priced and the perfect style. I put it on my Christmas wish list and my son surprised me with it. Don't you just love it!!!!!!
Pretty turned wood column painted a spicy mustard color and six lights.
I love the little check flowered shades too.
Yes, I know, I am REALLY spoiled. Isn't it fun!!!!
Thanks for stopping by, and I can't wait to see what you have to share this week. I hope you all had a very Blessed Christmas.

Thanks for the party. I really like the chandy. Shades come and go on them in my house. When I'm feeling primitive, they come off. When going for a cozier effect, I put them back on.
ReplyDeleteOh Marty, that's a fabulous chandy! I love the mustard color so much. You're very lucky to have such a sweet son. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteOh Marty I LOVE your new chandy! Where oh were did that come from? Did the shades come with it? It looks just perfect and I'm sure you are delighted every time you walk in the room. :-) Thanks for hosting this fun variation on your party this week!

ooh la la... love the casual look of the "Frenchy" chandy, Marty. Someone paid good attention. Hope you have a wonderful, upcoming New Year! hugs, Sue
ReplyDeleteI like both but you rarely see a wooden chandelier. Good job son!
ReplyDeleteLove you new chandelier! Those shades are so cheerful and welcoming! Thanks for hosting this "anything goes" TT -- and Happy New Year to you and yours...
ReplyDeleteLove your new chandy! It's perfect! The first thing we did when we signed the closing papers on our home was to go out and buy a new chandy for the dining room. Couldn't abide the old one - it was a big ceiling fan that had been hung low over the table. Many blessings to you, my friend, in the coming year.

Long story short, but we have had electric problems starting Christmas Eve. The Utility Co has been out 3 times and we are currently on limited power while the fix the problem. About all I'm able to do is make comments on my lapstop.
I have linked with a post I did on the 23rd and appreciate your hosting another party. They are just the best!
