Updated Light Fixture from the Garden Department

Pin It

Brass has it’s place and some people pull it off really well in their homes. But it always feels dated in mine.

I wanted something more modern for my foyer. Something with a bit of an industrial feel. I thought it might go well with my DIY shim mirror and my redone dresser, a.k.a. Lego holder.

I won’t lie. It took some puzzle work and there were times when I thought, ‘this requires more spacial ability than I have’, but I finally got it!

I reworked the fixture to accomodate two metal baskets (sans coco liner) from the garden department. Repainted an oil rubbed bronze and, voila!, a $15 update!

And the pattern on the ceiling when it’s on is just an added bonus!

    We have those exact lights in our kitchen and office! We HATE them! This is such a great idea!

    That looks amazing!! Can I ask how you reworked the fixture for the baskets to stay connected to the light? I have very similar pendant lights, and they are so fugly! I love what you did, and I can’t believe that only cost you $15!! Amazing.

      Actually the baskets are just sitting on the section of the fixture that used to hold the glass. Every fixture is different. It took some trial and error before I was able to figure out how to work it. Thank you!
