I love drum shades ceiling light fixtures.
I have always liked the look of it.
But they are pretty expensive...especially for the larger sizes.
So imagine my reaction when a friend of mine text me and asks me if I would like 4 of them.
Yes, you read that correctly, not 1, but 4.
Two are matching, and one is super large size.
for FREE.
A friend of a friend just bought a newly remodeled house in a really nice part of town.
Apparently she did not like the new fixtures that were put in, and had them changed them out.
sees the light fixtures on the floor and asks her what is she going to do with them.
Her reply: Do you want them?
So that's how these beauties landed on my doorsteps last night.
I am so excited.
These are brand new, and really nice.
This person, whom I don't even know, just wanted to get rid of about $1000 (if not more) worth of light fixtures.
So true:
freely give and freely receive.
Stay Frugal,
Daniela

Lucky you! I like drum shade lights. I think they would look good in your house too. I remember when you made one. You'll have to be sure to share where they end up!
So true, give and it will be given back to you!
Now that's a good friend to think o of you! They are lovely and even nicer that you can enjoy them knowing they were free.
A truer statement I've never heard. Have fun with your new shades!
