Fan Makeover

Joe went to Dallas a couple weekends ago to spend time with his brother and to bring back some furniture for Serena. Anthony also gave Joe a ceiling fan they were getting rid of. Joe being the little handyman that he is, and me being the crafty woman I try to be.....well, we gave the fan a make over. In all fairness, Joe did most of it. I just helped here and there. =) Joe can't let projects that need to be done sit for too long. He's the "get er' done" type of guy. We put up the Christmas tree and decorations last Saturday, and before we were completely finished and everything was put away, he was working on the fan. I should have taken a before and after picture but I found one online to kind of give you an idea of the before=) It wasn't exactly like this. The lights are different, and the fan blades had more of a wood look not a painted look.

SO, here's the before......

And here it is now

There's nothing a little spray paint can't change!=) We used Oil Rubbed Bronze on the fan and on the blades we used Almond. It turned out so well! We moved the other fan we had in here to our guest bedroom. The only lighting we had in that bedroom was from one dinky little lamp, so it's SO much better now! We love the new fan! Thanks Anthony and Julie!
