Repurposing an old entry light

Our old 1980's entry light has been transformed and now lights our table for meals.

    Good for you! You should tell Houzzers how you did it.

    Nice. What are the arms wrapped with?

    We used rustoleum oil rubbed bronze spray paint on the entire fixture. Jute rope was used to wrap the arms with a glue gun to help it stick.

    Such fun. Beautifully conceived and done, Mark.

    Also such fun, MS. Maybe we should all be looking more closely at the possibilities in our boring old light fixtures.

    There are so many ways to use the products available to us to create interesting homes. The old master finishers had to use what was available to produced the desired results. We try our best not to use canned products for our finishes so the work we do will be unique and available to our clients who truly want a different look.
