I am a little late posting this, but I think it may apply to May's "light" theme and maybe June's theme. I will probably post again for June, since a lost of things in my house need "freshening up"! Okay, so I had this ugly outdated light fixture hanging over the table in the kitchen. See Figure A.
That thing had to go. It looked like a UFO.
It was difficult to spray the paint on and have no drips, so I did end up sanding it off a few times and applying more coats of paint. I kind of like the look that gave it, though. Sort of rustic....? I decided to paint the little candlesticks, too. I think it looks a little more updated now, it matches other accents in the kitchen, and it was even better that this transformation cost virtually nothing!
