Saying goodbye to brass...

We love our house but have been wanting to make some upgrades. Our house has brass fixtures and knobs that are outdated and we finally changed them out!

Old Family Room Fan
Many thanks to my big brother Brandon for coming over two nights this week and helping Gus with wiring and for climbing into the attic! You are the BEST!
Bridger helped too!

Making a new outlet for our chandelier...
in the background you can see our old one that Gus and Brandon were excited to get rid of so they didn't hit their heads on it anymore!

Working hard!
Our new Chandelier from Costco!
We also found some nice ceiling fans at Costco for our family and living rooms!
Brandon was trying to blind me with his head lamp:)
We put this pretty fixture over our front door... I love it!
Our front room... the fan in the family room is the same.
New view from the front room... love it!
Good Bye Brass!
We also replaced the door knobs from this...
To This...
Next project is to paint my bedroom and the kids rooms!
I like the one on the left.
