and most recently, I helped out my mom! She had been thinking about getting a new chandelier in her dining room, but I decided to just revamp her 27 year old one for her, haha.

With my dad's help in dismantling & unwiring the light, I just spraypainted the frame & all the metal findings in an 'oil rubbed bronze' colour. I ran out of spraypaint, but had meant to paint the "candles" the same colour. oops. later days, I suppose.
Because of my DIY frenzy, I'm looking like a total wreck. I've got my arms covered in spots of black and purple spraypaint & accidentally sprayed my arm today like this:

and I also accidentally slashed all of my fingers open on my left hand while handling a sheet of glass. yikes.
What kind of spring projects are you up to? I'm gonna be planting the outdoor veggie garden pretty soon & can't wait for that!
xoxo
