It's a CHANDELIER...

We've made lots of improvements since moving into our home 3 years ago... some not so noticable (rewiring)... some VERY noticible (stripping LOTS of wallpaper and painting)... but the ONE thing we have done that has given us the biggest satisfaction and made the most visual difference in the house is replacing the CHANDELIER in the dining room... I know... no "big" deal right... and it was a fairly "cheap" improvment (under $200)... BUT... it has made a WORLD of difference... my husband even put the switch on a dimmer... so in the evenings I turn it on to create a soft glow in the DR (we LOVE the way it looks from the OUTSIDE of the house)... so now... every time we make an improvement (either inside or outside) and we are very happy with it... we say "It's a CHANDELIER"... When I purchased a houseplaque with our housenumber on it and removed the CHEESIE numbers from on the front door I said to my husband "It's a CHANDELIER"... and he agreed... NEXT year we are planning to replace the flagstone patio out back with tumbled brick... and make it a bit bigger... it's been in the planning since we first moved in... and we are very excited... we both think once it's done we'll sit out there relaxing and look at each other and say "It's a CHANDELIER"...
