Lighting fixtures

If you remember, not too long ago I was the receiver of 4 brand new free drum shade lighting fixtures.

I have decided to use one in our bedroom, one in the bathroom and one in the entrance over the stairs.

That left me with an extra one.

So I decided to separate the double shade and use it in two different room.

I had to be creative on how to modify the 

metal part to hang it from the existing fixtures.

I used one in the boy room, 

and the other one in the girls room.

Both current lighting fixtures have a fan, and we definitely did not want to get rid of them.

I love fans for two reasons:

They make the room feel a couple of degrees lower (without costing much to operate), 

and they make a little white noise for the kids to help them sleep.

This is what I did with the ceiling fan fixture in the girls room.

I attached the shade first, 

then used these paper shades 

(they were originally from a set of hanging string lights) 
and hang them from the holes previously needed to hold the screws for the glass globes.

I added different length for dimension and to hide the view of the lightbulbs.

The girls now have their very own chandelier.

And this is how the one in the boy room looks.

I will show the other drum shades once we change them all out.

Stay Frugal,
