We’re in the market for a slew of new lights for the new house. We replaced the ugly porch light yesterday and it rocks. It is a simple drop lantern from Home Depot.
The big problem light is the one in the foyer. I don’t have a good picture of how horrific the light really is but everyone who has been in the house has either done a double-take or has just said “that’s fugly”.
See for yourself:
We haven’t been able to find anything we like at Home Depot and decided to look elsewhere. I’ve looked through a few catalogs and the better-half has been browsing a local lighting store’s web page today. Here’s a look-see at the very attractive option he emailed me:
Wouldn’t it be a hoot to exchange a fugly light for an even fuglier light? Ok, if it were free and it took no effort.
You may have replaced the hall light by now, and I don’t know how much you wanted to spend. But potterybarn.com has a good looking pendant light–Bradford disk pendant for $269. Just a thought.
