A Little Bling Makes All The Difference {Guest Room Chandelier}

I am not a “fan” of ceiling fans.

So after 8 years, I finally replaced the guest room ceiling fan.

Guest Room

We installed the Celeste Chandelier by Pottery Barn ~~

“We” as being the electrician installed the chandelier!

The Celeste Chandy seemed to be a great fit for the room.

The “manly-manly” softball guys will just have to get over having a light fixture of crystals

However, I know their wives will appreciate the new look..

Guest Room Chandelier

Oh yes ~ ~ Nothing like a little bling to make a girl happy!

Now off to put a bit of Christmas bling in the room!

Have a wonderful day!

    Shirley,

    I’m loving that chandelier — and that guest room! It’s sooooo inviting. I’m thinking your happy wife guests will never want to leave!

      What a beautiful guest room! I was also hoping you would share the paint color on the walls that you used. It is so soothing!

    Looks absolutely beautiful, Shirley. I really want to take down the ceiling fan in the hearth room and replace it with a chandelier. Maybe that will be one of our wintertime fix ups, we always seem to do this time of year.

    We don’t have fans in the bedroom, but the one in the den stays. Electric is very expensive on LI, a summer bill reaches $800 for 2 months, so with the cathedral ceiling, it helps. We have 2 on the covered porch too, keeps the bugs at bay and always breeze.
    Your chandy looks very pretty! I am sure your guests will love it.

    Shirley, your chandelier is beautiful! I want to put something like that over the dining table during the reno, for the girls; but, we’re not too sure now. After cooking several meals in the kitchen/dining area, we now understand why the ceiling fans were put up in the first place…lol! Louisiana gets hot and humid; and it is obvious in the kitchen area. Maybe I can find a way to make it all work.

    I usually choose aesthetics over comfort, but when it comes to being hot, comfort wins. Your guestroom is gorgeous! I love the chandelier and the wall color is perfect! Great choice!

    Your chandelier goes so well in your guest bedroom. I got rid of all but one ceiling fan and that is going when I find one I like. Love the bling on it.

    WHALE of an excellent choice for that room!!!! You chose just the right one! I saw it at Pottery Barn when there for a class this past Sunday morning. (Do they do those classes where you live?Free of charge, one hour just before opening on Sunday morning, you get a 10% off coupon for anything you buy that day, and there’s almost always a great exchange of ideas among the participants. ) We have 3 chandeliers in our master suite, and I’m campaigning for 2 more that would be added to the bathroom. The bedrooms are all on the top floor of the house, so summers can be brutal without a fan to keep the air constantly moving. (Also because of those nasty and on-going hot flashes making my life a living hell all night long ๐Ÿ™‚ ) We have compromised by using tower floor fans that are partially obscured by design.

    Oh this is so pretty, Shirley! I love the shape of the chandy, and it looks perfect with the bed. Great choice! I’m hoping to put a small chandy in our hall bathroom (maybe over the holidays). ๐Ÿ™‚

    Have a great weekend!

    Hi, Shirley! I agree! I would much rather see a chandelier than a ceiling fan. Too bad everyone in my family loves to sleep under a fan. ๐Ÿ™ I’m guilty, too.
    This room is absolutely gorgeous and that chandelier is the perfect touch! Beautiful!

    Shirley, I love, LOVE the chandy! It is gorgeous. I wish I could do the same in our guest room BUT, often I have to sleep up there (Joe’s snoring keeps me awake too often) and in the summer it is TOO hot to not have the fan. So, I sacrifice “beauty and bling” for comfort. I love the beautiful colors in this room too. But then I always love everything you do!!! have a blessed Thanksgiving my friend. XO

    In case you were worrying you hadn’t washed your bedsheets in a couple of weeks, a new survey has revealed
    that one third of the population only wash them once a year.
