So, it was clearly time to get rid of the ceiling fan with the granny flower my basket. After lots of research, I fell in love with like 10 online options. Unfortunately, I felt the need to see the thing in person before actually buying it.
I woke up one day, and decided to see how a fancypants light ( it’s a technical term) would look in our kitchen. So I drew this one and decided that it was just too fancy for us.
We were gearing up for a last minute birthday soiree the next day.
I finally drove to Lowes and bought a light. I needed it now.
So down came the old one.
Boo yah! So long granny fan!
I really love this puppy from Restoration Hardware.
But the $750 price tag wasn’t music to my ears.
So I found it’s inexpensive ($150) cousin at Lowes and skipped all the way home! Okay, we drove, but if I could have skipped, I would have 🙂 .
I am so happy with this choice. It just feels perfect. Plus, it beats the heck out of the hanging Nana basket. I bought 2 small potted trees at Ikea for $15 each to put by the window. I feel like it’s kind of Havana-ish now. I love it!

I love it! It looks awesome! Lowe’s has really stepped it up with their light fixtures, I find myself craning my neck every time I’m in there to check them all out.

I was very ANTI-LOWES and ANTI-HOME DEPOT because I didn’t want “contracter” style generic fixtures. I wanted something different. I almost fell on the ground when I saw this among a sea of frosted glass lampshaded candelabras!

Mindy@FindingSilverLinings says
Hey Michi!! Glad to hear from you 😀 When we moved in 11 months ago, I had no clue how long it would take to start getting the house to the way we wanted it. It’s definitely a process, but so worth it when it starts to come together.
