Live: Chandelier Make Over

Another light fixture redo:

Our dining room already had a simple chandelier, and when we moved in there was no sense in replacing a working light fixture. However, after painting the kitchen ivory(it was lemon yellow and lime green) the chandelier blended in with the walls.
An easy, and cheap fix was spray paint. I used Rustoleum Oil Rubbed Bronze, but I prefer the color of the Krylon Oil Rubbed Bronze.
Either color of spray paint it was still a cheap and easy fix, and it looks so much better. My husband was able to take the light fixture down (just don't forget to turn the power off). Then we screwed off the glass parts, and on cardboard in the back yard I spray painted them.

The chandelier now pops off the ivory walls, and looks much better with the new hardware in the kitchen.
