Painting my chandelier

I could only find a couple "before" pictures of my chandelier in it original condition.

This one where you can see it's reflection in the mirror.  Very standard.

Very traditional. 

It basically looked like this.  Including the "flame" shaped bulbs.

First I took the chandelier out of the ceiling

and took a few pictures, so I could remember how to put it back together.  It really was not that hard.

Plus I had convinced Janella to help me.  Or to blame if something went wrong :) 

And yes, the yellow can of paint on the table was an option.  So was turquoise.

But I decided on white.  And I really, really like it.  A lot!

I also updated the bulbs to small circle bulbs.

Oh! I can't forget the pictures on the wall.  I got the frames for my birthday.  But just recently hung them and took the close-up pictures of our kids.  The pictures are huge!  12x12 from Costco.  The frames are 20x20 from Ikea.

 And the Rhododendrons on my table? From this bush at the corner of our home.

 So what do you think?  I'm in love!
