Luminescence

Some of you may remember my previous post regarding the beautiful chandelier that we bid on and won at the auctions that we regularly attend.
My dear friend told me that she would love to have the light fixture to display in their dining area. Even though I had several visions to transform the piece, I was thrilled that she jumped at the opportunity to showcase the classy feature!
We attended that auction together, and the candelabrum was one of the very last items to bid on before the power went out due to a thunderstorm. It was an exciting, "light flickering"  event to say the least!
We started to brainstorm on how to design and customize it and the conclusion we came up with was to do absolutely nothing to it due to the purchase of other decor that was complimentary to their lovely space.
Shortly after the auction they purchased a large piece of wall art and the large frame was the exact beautiful bronze color of the chandelier itself, and the sconces on the far wall were swoopy in nature and mimicked the light fixture's personality.  So... it was my home to theirs!
I took a Saturday afternoon to clean it up and pack it up nicely for transport. I have added a few photos to take you on our journey from tempestuous to luminous!
Troy and Jenna your dining room is exquisite! Enjoy!
