FABBY: Before and After Chandy

Hello sweet friends!

   After we placed the crystal Antique Italian Chandy in our formal dining room, we of course, had to take down our previous Italian bronze chandelier we had for 30 years. Than I thought I will give it away to one of my girls, which both didn't want it... so I proceeded to place it under one of the guest room's bed and forgot about it.

The other day I was looking through Internet, (as I often do) for interior decorating ideas, or just for the hell of it! To my happy surprise I saw a very similar chandy hanging lovely on top of a round foyer table and voila!.. I remembered our 'bronze chandy' under the bed and right away I mentioned it to Alejandro, that I'd love it atop our vintage French table in the foyer too; for which he agreed and immediately called someone to help him hang it up, so here it is! Hope you like the Before and After Chandy.

This is how it looked without the chandy only yesterday.

The foyer area is ready for the dirty work of placing the bronze Italian chandy up...and me, not so ready for the after clean up!

I cleaned her and buffed her thoroughly with a cream specially for bronze, (broke two nails), or for gold metals, yesterday; to get her ready for today's hanging...so now it's shining, spic and span and she's up doing her work of illuminating us beautifully once more, hopefully for another 30 years, lol..,

I'm so happy the girls didn't want it and I kept it, cause it looks perfect in the ceiling atop the foyer vintage French table. I'm loving it!

You won't believe how familiar she looks hanging from the ceiling again...like she wasn't  more than a year under a bed, lol!!!

Don't you love it when you find something beautiful and perfect right in your own home, which you already had, stashed some where doing nothing?!

Thanks for coming sweet ladies, as you know you always make my day!

I appreciate the wonderful parties such lovely ladies host each week.

LOVE,
FABBY
