A broken pendent light leads to a quick & inexpensive update
Last weekend the hubby had to take the pendent light down over the kitchen sink and rewire it.
That got me to thinking!?!
We put these lights in 10 years ago when we moved in. I think they were in need of a little update! So I took the ride to Home Depot with the hubs, and while he went and got what he needed I went and found these new globes. They remind me of milk glass with a white vain in it. It's hard to tell from the pics.
The two pendents and the fixture over the kitchen table all got a new look.
He's the Before...
And the After...

Looks great, Martina!
Morning, Martina! Such a subtle difference but such a difference. I love this. Wish I had a sweet light over my sink!
Have a blessed day and you're always a sweetie,

A little update, but they look great, Martina! I love the longer shape.
I like how easy that was to give your lights an update! You probably feel like you have a whole new light fixture.

That was easy! I like the new longer shaped globes. Great update.

What a great difference and you did not even have to replace it for a completely updated look.
Great tip, Martina!
