It looks right at home in our foyer.
There was just one problem with updating the foyer light.The dining room light now looked a little tired and dated.
I love the fixture itself and knew that with just a little transformation it could look fresh and new.These socket covers can be found where light fixtures are sold. I am drawn to the warm color and the details that resemble a burning candle.
I've used them before on our master bedroom chandelier. 
It's a simple fix. Simply pull off the old socket cover and replace it with the new---but first measure the length of the existing covers to be sure they'll fit.The new covers and some pretty crystal (that are actually Christmas ornaments) are all this chandelier needed to give it new life.

I like the new look of your chandelier. Such a easy and quick fix. My kind of project.
Hope you have a lovely weekend.

Busy, busy, busy. You have tons of projects to do. You are just as busy as my mom (cottageonmain.) She always is doing something creative.
Very pretty and quick! My dining room chandelier is like your before picture as far as bling. I was thinking about looking for some crystals that I could hang on mine.
So pretty and fresh! Can you tell me where you got the candle sleeves? I had to order some special recently cuz I could'nt find them anywhere - very inconvenient!
It looks great! Where did you find those ornaments?!!

The chandeleir's look great! I have one that I found from the thrift shop also that I am working on! I awarded you the "Sunshine Award"! Go to my blog to grab the award and give it to others who inspire you!
Okay Little Miss Smarty Pants, look at you! It looks amazing. Way to go!
I never would have thought to do that, that is why you are an amazing interior decorator. If I took pictures of a room and sent them to you? Could you give me any tips via the email? Unless you would like to fly out to Belgium and do it person to person.=)
Seriously you have one of the best thrift stores ever. The wonderful chairs for your dining room and now the chandelier, Lucky!
