My “projects” are moving slower than expected…but isn’t that how everything goes? One thing has gotten done. I hung a new chandelier in the dining room.
I FELL in LOVE with this thing the minute I saw it peeking out of the box!  I was at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore, looking for supplies for another project (which I promise to share soon), when a man was bringing in the box with the chandelier. Of course, my girls needed to go potty so I couldn’t ask him if he was donating it.
As I rushed the girls to “HURRY and go potty!”, I kept thinking…If he is donating it, someone probably saw it to and already bought it!!!!
When we got back to the front he was still there and so was the chandelier…whew!
Unfortunately, they would not give me a price until the manager had a look at it. And since it was about 120 degrees in their warehouse there was no way I could hang around that long.
I gave them my number and prayed they would really call.
To make a long story a little shorter they called and I went back the next day.
I have been looking for a light fixture just like this one for that space. Now I have one item checked off. My plan is to replace the table with a more rustic one and get a little more casual chair (maybe metal or wicker).
I am going to be patient and search for the right table at the right price (this is a rather hard task for me…the patience part 😉 ).
Hope y0u are all having a wondering week!

Super short notice but I messaged you on your Etsy in case you are interested in setting up during our yard sale this Saturday. Also we are making some rustic barn tables out of reclaimed wood that we will have in the sale for $25! They aren’t anything super fancy but the price is right!

Beautiful chandelier. Love how it looks. I hope you will link up to my Sizzle into Summer party that opens tonight at 8pm EST to show it off.

The chandelier is gorgeous!! I never find good stuff when I’m at the Restore. Do you go to the one downtown on like 21st street? Or is there another one I don’t know about?
Angela says
Erin, it was at the one on 22 St. I just happen to get lucky. That day I got a few really cool things. One of which, was an old door! 🙂

Excited about my new dining room chandelier, I stumbled upon it at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore while juggling my girls and their potty needs! I felt like I was playing Wordle, racing against time to secure this gem. After a suspenseful wait, they finally called me back to confirm it was mine. Can’t wait to see it shine bright in my dining room!
