New Cottage Kitchen Light Fixtures

I wanted to share the new ceiling light fixtures that Rick put up this week.  I apologize for the photo because the weather is very cloudy, but I just couldn't wait to share these with you. 

We bought these pendant light fixtures at Lowes this past weekend.  We Rick shortened them because our ceilings are not that high.  They aren't producing the amount of light that we are used to, but hopefully the new light that will be installed over the sink will help.  We may have to add some lighting over the cabinets so the top half of the kitchen doesn't look so dark.

I'm going to be sharing some of my older autumn folk art prints in my next posts to get you in the mood for that cooler fall weather.



The scent of autumn rises into the air along with billows of smoke drifting from the chimney tops in the little village of Hawthorne. Leaves gently fall from trees forming a kaleidoscope of color on the rolling hills. Families dine in the local café after church and walk home in the cool evening air. Tillie, a local business owner has been dating Mr. Hankins, the Farmer’s Bank president, who was won over by her warm smile and kind heart. They plan to be wed at the village church and the reception is scheduled for the Hawthorne Inn, owned by LuAnn, Tillie’s best friend. The entire village is invited so Mr. Hankins might have to dig deep into his pockets for this event!

  2. We are looking for new lighting over one section of the kitchen...our ceilings are also low. It would have to blend with what is going on in the dining area right next door...hmmm...Lowe's you say...

    Sweet, sweet painting. And you know how I love the storied. Yes, he's going to have to dig very deep for this wedding. Hope that the ring is a beauty, too.

  6. You may want to add some christmas lights on the tops of your cabinets for a subtle
    "glow" that would cost hardly anything...
