After 25 years of ceiling light fixtures sitting in boxes in a closet or storage room in the basement....waiting to be re-wired and cleaned-up.....the living room now has a re-wired and cleaned-up ceiling light fixture :-) Forgot the 'before' photo. Although all who know me, remember that after the room was painted back in 1990, I did not get around to re-wiring and re-hanging the light fixture that was there. Sooooooo.....there was no light fixture, only capped wires. That was then. And now is now.....BEAUTIFUL, no?
And while I was having the living room fixture re-wired, I had another one re-wired and cleaned-up. I replaced this (yes, somewhere in a drawer is the light cover :-) .....
With this....now gracing the music-meditation room. GORGEOUS, no?
Grateful that these fixtures still had the intact glass pieces. Yury at the lamp repair place said it's hard to find replacement glass pieces for fixtures of this period. He goes to estate sales and when he finds them, he buys them, just in case a client needs. Yuri did a beautiful job of re-wiring and cleaning up the four fixtures. Thank you....Yury's Lights & Beyond.....at 1849 Divisadero.
Two more fixtures to re-wire, clean-up, and schedule the electrician to hang in the middle room and the bedroom. All in time for my 60 days of celebration :-)
Soon, very soon.....this will be history....
And this will be history....
So stay tuned for photos!
