We have begun to tackle the lighting in the house. I removed the hallway light fixture to reveal a large, gaping hole. Whoever installed the previous fixture had cut a very large opening around the electrical box and covered it with the base of the fixture, a kind of non-descript brass n' glass thing from the cheap rack at Ye Olde Big Box Home Store.
So now I get to make a trip back to said Big Box Home Store to get materials to patch the hole and install our modern Ikea fixture we took from our apartment.
I would like to get a set of the Cove from Satellite Modern Lighting, but cost may put them on hold for a bit until we're more flush with cash.
Cove
Original crappy hall fixture.
Hole left by original crappy fixtue
