Chandalier

New to me, I found this lovely lead crystal chandalier at a thrift shop.  Cost $9.00.  A sucker for a long lost , treasure that has been discarded and let to deteriorated with life left to share, I snapd it up.  The wiring looked sound and the majority of the crstals were intact.  I collect old lead crstals in my travels, so I KNEW I had a supplu to choose from to fill in the blanks.  I rewired areas the might need it it, cleaned it throuroughly, repainted it a soft baby blue and had my electirician verify and rewire the critical areas. (Following code is important).  The minute I hung it up and in installed LED bright light bulbs the atmosphere in the studio changed, with shades, a warm soft light, without bright light for detail work.  What a difference!  I already have one chandelier up in the studio and will repaint it to coordinate better.  The style suits me SOOO much better I had no idea how one accessory made such a difference to my overall mood and the ambiance of the studio.  I adore spending time in here more and more.
