The parlor has light!


Fiiiiinally. I ordered this light fixture from Joss and Main in September. The glass shade arrived cracked, and it took the manufacturer a couple months to send a replacement (J&M's customer service people were very responsive and helpful; it was the manufacturer's issue). Also the fixture was listed as having sockets for six bulbs, but ours only had four. We worked on getting the base with six for a few months since that's what was advertised, but ended up being shipped a duplicate part for four bulbs. And at that point we gave up. Sunday this beauty went up on the ceiling.


Turns out four bulbs is plenty in this room and we're glad the base doesn't hold six. We'd probably have to wear sunglasses.

This sale has popped up again at Joss and Main for another 20 hours, I see, so if you find yourself needing one of these, see the deal here. The manufacturer is ELK Lighting and their name for this fixture is the Preston 6 Light Pendant.

Next we want to make over that fireplace. Give it a tile facelift and hook up some gas. We want fire! You can picture it, can't you? Let me help you via Photoshop:


We haven't looked at tile at all; we're still trying to figure out the cost of producing flames. But while we're playing in Photoshop, let's decorate some more. A plant? Bigger art, maybe? (Oops, I covered up the brass lady accidentally.) Some coffee table stuff like bloggers put on their tables for photos, and then clear off and pile their remotes and magazines back on after the picture is taken? Yes.
