Slowly we are making changes to our home to make it truly ours.\u00a0 We made another update to the kitchen that I am excited to share with you today.\u00a0 We added new kitchen lights over our breakfast bar. \u00a0We talked about changing out the lights, but we were not in a hurry. \u00a0Then one day I was at HomeGoods and found some lights and knew they would be great as the new lights. \u00a0They had three, and the price was amazing. \u00a0I loaded them in my cart and took them home for Yankee to install. \u00a0Well, you know how they say some things might be too good to be true? These lights and the price were too good to be true.<\/h3>\n

Here’s a peek at our new lights.<\/h3>\n

Here is a distance view of the old lights.\u00a0 I took this photo before we moved in.\u00a0 I knew I wanted to add some bigger lights and make more of a statement with our new lights.<\/h3>\n

Here is a close up of the new hammered lights.\u00a0 I thought they would look great, and I am thrilled with the final look. \u00a0Installing them was a whole other story.\u00a0 Yankee has installed many lights for us including the one in our dining room<\/a>, and the one in Little Miss’s room<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0 On a recent Sunday it took him all afternoon to install just one. \u00a0After lots of frustration, he called it quits and said let’s bring in the professionals.<\/h3>\n

I called our electrician, and he thought it would be a fast job.\u00a0 It took him two hours to install the other two lights. \u00a0Let’s just say he wasn’t happy with the lights and the installation process. \u00a0I guess there was a reason these lights were such a good deal.<\/h3>\n

Despite hours of frustration for Yankee and the electrician, the lights are up. I think they’re a nice modern addition to our kitchen.\u00a0 I found some other cool hammered pendant lights styles that are similar to ours, but they should be easier to install.<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

The lights are also bigger than the previous ones, and I feel they are a much better size. \u00a0Yankee’s only request before I purchased new lights was that he wanted to use these<\/a> light bulbs. \u00a0He loves them and knew they wouldn’t look right with clear lights.\u00a0 So, this was a win- win.<\/h3>\n

Do you have any thing you purchased at a great deal that was too good to be true in one way or another?<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

Cheers!<\/h3>\n
