Let there be light!

One of my final tasks was to select the light fixtures for the house. I had a pretty solid idea of what I was looking for, but also had a few items on my wish list that I was hoping to somehow work into the budget.

Needless to say, I was in the showroom all of 5 minutes when I blew the entire budget on one light! I wanted a shazam-pow-wowzers kind of light in the foyer and boy, did I get my wish. I ended up getting 40% off of the fixture...but it still blew my budget to bits!

Undaunted, I carried on...gotta have lights everywhere ya know.

Here's what I selected for the rest of the house (all fixtures - with the exception of the foyer light - will be in oil rubbed bronze).

Foyer (it's 9' tall and made of Swarovski crystals! I think this is what heaven looks like):

Dinette: Island (there will be 2 of these):

Kitchen Sink Light:Half Bath (had to pick mirrors too!):

Main Bath:

Ensuite (there will be 2 of each the fixtures and the mirrors. Bonus - the mirrors tilt! Cooool!):


Exterior (these will be in black):



And that just leaves the Dining Room fixture. Unfortunately I couldn't seem to find one that met all of my persnickity requirements. Soooo, we'll be eating by candlelight until I can make my mind up.
