We installed it below the existing recessed light, centering it we used four small cup hooks screwed into place. We attached the rope to the hooks and a few minutes later we were done!
This lonely landing has come a long way!
Before:
Now:
and a few at night, I love how it softens and redirects the light
I last left off with the rope being firm but not quite solid ... after a few weeks, the Mod Podge hardcoat did further cure and it is very hard now. I was going to apply a clear epoxy/resin coat, but it turns out mine didn't need it!
I am off to work on the glass panels ... I'll be back soon with progress photos!








Cool!
ReplyDeleteWhat an ingenious "fix" to a dull recessed light! I have considered hanging a screw in pendant above my stairs but now, I just may attempt this:)
ReplyDeleteThis project is/was wicked cool and am so glad to hear the modge podge hardened up. I like the do it anyway approach to life. I share it, if I have the time. I'm chevroning. Who'da thunk.
ReplyDeleteI love your little 'D' portrait you have hanging with the other miscellaneous portraits and pictures. It adds volume and flavor to an otherwise boring modernized home.

Beautiful! It looks great with the prints you have framed there.
