I mentioned in my first post that I’m a bit… frugal. That couldn’t be more true than when it comes to lighting. I love lighting. It’s an easy update with a big WOW factor! And my husband knows I can’t resist the lighting aisles at Lowe’s. He tolerates this, and is now a pro at changing out light fixtures in our homes.
Our new house doesn’t have a refrigerator, so I went to Lowe’s to look at our options and see what sales they’re running. And of course, I took a detour to the lighting section.
And I made the first purchase for our new home.
I can’t think of any better dining fixture for a home built in 1941 than a chandelier with fluted glass shades, a nod to the art deco period. The very last one in the store, hanging as a display.
The original price tag read $179, and was marked down to $35.80. That’s my kind of price!
In other news, we still do not have a refrigerator for the house. But we will. Before we move in.

Bring frugal means being able to afford more projects! Thanks for reading! I saw your recipe for no-bake coffee energy bites, and it’s on my “must make” list!

That’s a great deal. Wonderful that your husband has skillz. That’s the biggest frugality — DIYing. Jo @ Let’s Face the Music

Jo, you’re absolutely right! We save the most money by figuring out how to do things ourselves! I stopped by your blog and immediately saw the green rise and fall pendant light. Now I’m longing for one for my house!
