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.

All that back patting! It does look good. So it's good for a few years now..
Way to go! It looks all beautiful again!
OK! Kudos to you! That second shot is absolutely gorgeous!!!
You are unstoppable.
I commented. It's gone..
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!
Found you.
I aim to inspire, Marlane!
I can see why you love that chandalier so much, it's gorgeous!
I would be patting myself on the back for that, too! Wow!
Hey--I've had times where just managing to take a shower deserved an ovation--ROFL! That is awesome!! :)
WOW! I am sending you many pats on your back. Plus, a little cheer: Sandra, Sandra there is no stopping you! YAY! YAY....YYYAAAYYY!
Kaye
That is stunning both unclean and clean! Prettier cleaned up though!
Your efforts are making me look lame! I need to get my butt in gear and clean all two of those lights I have with those itty bitty webs in them.
LOL. I told myself they were "decorations" for Halloween.
Seriously.
Beautiful.
Congrats.
Thanks, Pixie. It is sparkly.
Rita, I do get that! I guess it's a offshoot of the stress, I need to be busy.
Thanks, Kaye. I'm slow but I'm making the attempt. I have my own cheer, I like that!!
You did a great job, Sandra, and that chandelier is a beautiful thing.
Val, I couldn't see the webs unless the light hit it right, so easy to ignore :) It's old a sparkly. Kinda like me!
Thanks, Dorothy. It's old and still hanging around.
That's a totally amazing chandelier. And really striking now it's been cleaned. We've got a fancy chandelier but it's nothing like as fancy as yours!
Thank you, nick. It is very old, by what the wiring was. Old stuff. I like it because even though it's full of crystals, it doesn't seem overbearing to me. It's also not very large at all.
