FANtastic!

Since I had to call an electrician to fix whatever went wrong with the GFI in my basement, I decided to have him install the foyer chandelier and a new ceiling fan in my living room. Now I don’t have to borrow/buy a huge ladder to be able to reach the ceiling, which was my plan when I was going to do it myself.
Ta-da! The new foyer chandelier:

This is what it looked like before:

Next, I bought the white ceiling fan with the pretty chandelier light kit and had him install it in my living room. It makes such a big difference, and I love the sparkle:

Here is a picture of the old brass and oak ceiling fan I had previously:

That picture is a waaay “before” picture! I took that when we were having the hardwood floors installed, which is why the fan is so dusty. I do clean! However, when they installed the floors the dust went everywhere. You can also see the old popcorn spackle ceiling as well as the old living room paint colors. This place has come a long way.

That fan is awesome!
My mom is going to put a chandelier in her new closet and was inspired by you to start checking Overstock.com’s selection!
Looks great! It’s the carved mirror that your foyer chandelier is reflected in that I’m gaga over, though…wow, that’s beautiful.
where did you get the chandelier fan?
I bought it a lampsplus.com. It’s the only place I know that carries that particular style.
