Bye Bye Brass!

We have been doing some updates in our house recently. The previous owners put chrome and brushed nickel in the kitchen and bathrooms. All the other knobs and fixtures in the house were the original brass. We don't care for brass so we finally, after 5 years decided we needed to get rid of it. First, Brad painted our brass fan with brushed nickel paint.
Then we bought all new doorknobs for the outside doors and all the inside doors. I really like what we picked out.
I put all the hinges on last night.

Here are two cool lights we got. The first one is a chandelier that is in our breakfast area, and the second track lighting is over our sink. I was so glad to get rid of that yucky flourescent light! We know this light is supposed to be straight. That is because it is to go on a ceiling. But, we are weird and put it on the wall and made it uneven. We're cool like that. I think it's nice like that.

We still have to get a new fireplace cover and get some new light fixtures, but we are on our way to a brass free house!
