Ta-Da

And the winner is.......
ME!


I got it done. I did. The last time I cleaned this was early spring of 2020. That is rather evident in the first photo. As a recap; I purchased this fixture in the late 1970s from an antique shop in Minneapolis. My father wired it and I have moved it with me from home to home over the years. It's been hanging here the longest time of its life with me. I am not generally one for froo-froo, but that said, I liked it from the moment I first saw it and have not changed my mind. It's not overbearing. Somehow, the Wassily chair and the chandelier work together.

One more pat on my back. I got the kitchen light fixtures washed, too. Yes indeed, my back does hurt, but my self-worth jumped up a notch. Who would think that would make you feel better about yourself? ME!

Good Saturday to all.

It looks stunning and an inspiration for me to get cleaning.

You were sent to spam jail, Boud. I have bad shoulders so it's an effort to pat myself on the back this much! I always cleaned it spring and fall. I think once a year will do now.

Thanks, Far Side. It does.

It's my folly, Lori. We all deserve at least one folly in our lives.

For several years I was unstartable, AC!
