New Kitchen Chandy it's a Dandy

A finished project

I couldn't be more excited

I've had this chandy for months

bought it on sale at Ethan Allen from my friend 

~Jen~

I just love the detail in this chandy

I was showing her pictures of ones I liked for months

and then one day she calls and says she saw one in the 

~clearance room~

I rushed down and bought it

that was several months ago

~problem~

we both thought it was black

it wasn't

it was

~green~

dark, dark, green...

so finally a few days ago I got up the nerve to spray paint it

hung it from the hanging basket

hanger thingy

 ~Debbiedoos~

 needs to be thanked for giving me the encouragement

like she said 

"it's easy"

she was right....

it couldn't have been more easy

it was cold outside and dried very fast

yesterday Rog came by and put it up

he's asking how high to put it

yikes that was a tough one

I had to go look at pictures

notice we have one bulb in to see

if it works

I had bought for like 5 bucks each some shades that were adhesive

so I cut out the pattern they give you and stuck the fabric right on there

then put the sticky trim on

 ~love~

JoAnn Fabric for this stuff

~voila~

the hubs walked in and didn't notice until I pointed it out

~he loved it~

yeahhhh

I couldn't have been more proud of myself

the easiest, simplest project

and here I had put it off 

so intimidated by it

Ok I'm ready for another! 

P.S. 

did you notice it's the same fabric I used on the 

settee

Master bath reveal
