The chandelier came from my grandmother's house...it hung in the room that I always stayed in while visiting and I've loved it since I was little.
Here's a closer shot before I hung it all by myself! My husband will be thrilled that his assistance wasn't required. My incessant need to hang chandeliers all over the house is a sore subject with us ;)
I completely forgot to take a "before" shot...but the white/yellow/green paint job looked something like this before I covered it with glossy black paint. Very cute, but I needed to make it a little edgier to fit with the vibe of the room.
If you're wanting a similar look, check out Ebay, Craigslist, and local antique stores. Try using the search terms "Italian Tole chandelier." Pottery Barn Kids also has these well-priced options:
In other guest bedroom news...spring is finally here and our azaleas are starting to bloom! This room has a great view of the newly colorful landscape :)
