metal basket turned light fixture, and a window makeover
Posted on 5:11 AM by follow me
I've been wanting to update the light fixture above
my kitchen sink for some time now. I finally found
the perfect basket, purchased at a consignment
store.
With just a little tweaking on the bottom,
we got it to fit perfectly.
Here's the before, and the fixture I have
hated for 6 years!
All we did was take the existing glass shade off and
replace with the basket.
I also added some trim work around the window
to dress it up.
I cleared off the junk that had been accumulating
on the window ledge,
and added my pretty glass collection filled with
pink flowers from my yard.
I love the frenchy farmhouse feel the new basket
light gives the space.
I also added a few accessories around the sink.
See what a little {primp}ing can do for
a small space?
Much better now.
P.S. {Primp}, The Shoppe is now open!
Just wanted to let you know I have opened an etsy shop which includes lots of yummy farmhouse goods, and fun items I have loved or would love in my own home. Here is a sneak peak at some of the goods:
Check out the fab etsy widget on the sidebar to see more items and to visit my shop.
My etsy name is MoshPosh because that's how I set it up years ago, and don't know how to change it. (Up until now I have only bought things on Etsy.) But I think the name actually fits the shop quite well, because I will have a mosh posh of items for you to browse.
keep primping,
