You know when you find the PERFECT piece of furniture and you just HAVE TO HAVE it? That happened to me when I was pouring over websites looking for the perfect chandelier.
With such straight lines and modern elements we introduced to our home, I tried to convince my husband we could go with a crystal hanging chandelier for our family room, the main room in our home. A perfect touch of feminine, I thought.
That didn't go over so well.
Then I found THE one. I found the perfect light until I saw the not so perfect price tag. $900. Really? For a chandelier?

Determined to find another retailer, I kept looking. Diligence paid off and I found it for less than half the price including delivery! Before I could triple guess myself (which I often do and then regret my indecision later), I bought it. 1 week later it was hanging in my family room. We have nick-named it "The Exploding Light Bulb".
Friends, I give you my Element of Wow, my Pièce de Résistance - my new chandelier.
My biggest, boldest design move I've ever done for myself!
Love it. Love it.
ReplyDeleteMy scariest design purchase EVER! Nothing "safe" about that bad boy!
