Updating light fixtures is a cost effective choice and gives a good return for your investment

This light fixture was dated and did nothing for this dining room.

This more elegant, updated fixture set the tone for this new and improved space.

This light fixture was a personal choice based on the original wall color

New neutral wall color and stainless look updated light fixture (matched the appliances) brought a fresh new appeal to this area, making it buyer friendly and move in ready

These are beautiful examples of what I like to call "Glamor do and don't".

Perfect illustrations of how a simple change can make a profound difference.

That floor change in the first example is pretty amazing as well!

Thanks for checking this post out Karen!

Thanks for sharing Karen.  Can you tell us how much the fixtures and other things you did cost?
