at Between Naps On The Porch, for Metamorphosis
Monday, Cheri at, It's So Very Cheri for The Knock
Off Knock Out Party. Please make a stop at both of
these events to see all the great ideals that are
sure to be waiting on you.
Bet you were wondering about my title!
My thoughts are, that when we accessorize our home it's
comparable to the jewelry and accessories wear with
our clothing. Or at least that's the story I give DH, when
he gets his, Honey To Do List.
Here is a picture, although not a good one of my
kitchen chandelier hanging. Plain ceiling,
nothing special.
This is where the matching light goes, but DH was taking
things apart and down so fast I didn't get a picture.
The fish were waiting!!!!!
Have you saw the medallions at Lowe's?
The one similar to this was $27.99 and was plastic.
This one came from Hobby Lobby, is metal and was
priced at $19.99, but was 50% off.
So since I have two ceiling fixtures in my kitchen, I
bought two of the medallions for less than one at Lowe's.
All DH did was remove the plastic white thing in the
middle, it was in place with a little silicone, then drilled
holes in the middle for the wires to go through.
Final result!!!
a large one over my dinning room table. It was a
garage sale find for $3.00.
bathroom. Like I said the fish were waiting on DH, and
he was moving.
these next track lights would be thrifty for sure....
FREE!!!!!!
A friend of mine had them, changed her mind about
putting them up, now Queen Bee has better lighting
in her bath room.
As you can see she has the jungle thing going on..

BEAutiful!!!! Seriously!
What a fabulous idea. I love the medallions. They give such wonderful character to the fixtures. You found a great deal and I'm sure they look much better than the plastic ones at Lowe's. I also really like the track lights. I think they can really do the job. Hugs, Marty
SUper new look Sandy !

Good job thinking outside the box. The medallion looks wonderful!!
I love the medallions. They add so much to the fixtures. Hmmm, I think I need to start looking for some for my house.
Thanks for sharing the info.
Looks great. Love the medallions.
I am inspired to do something more interesting with the light fixtures in my house now!
That is so pretty. It's amazing how something so little can change something so much. Thanks for posting to the party and being an inspiration.

Sandy,
Thanks you so much for visiting my blog.
To answer your question about the tray, no I didn't use primer first. I just sprayed several coats of the beige on the tray and let it dry overnight. I then applied the gel stain (Minwax, walnut 606) liberally over the tray then wiped it off until I got the right look I was after.
Sandy...you are one smart cookie! Love the way the medallion looks...truly beautiful!
