The first of many before and afters...

I have a lot to take after pictures of but most of it isn't quite finished.  But since this was a quick fix I thought I'd share it.  Here is the before of the light that hangs over our kitchen table...

And bless it's heart but it's ugly.  Not the worst light ever but just plain ugly.  Luckily in my sickened state I was still able to visit some thrift stores and found a $6 chandelier.   I then spray painted it and tonight Mike took down the 1966 wagon wheel-ish light and hung it in it's place.  It's cute and the color makes it less formal.  It might end up with some shades on it but it's cute enough for now...

What do you think?
