Let there be lights!

We added this metal "spider" with 24 arms to the perfectly ordinary double buld bent glass "landlord" fixture in our master bedroom. Add 24 crystals, and hit the switch...Ta-da! A whole new look, without even changing the light fixture, or turning off the power. If anyone knows where to get more of these "spiders" or something similar I'd love to know.Next we move to the Dining room, where we wanted to go in a more modern direction. So, now we have a hovering UFO...
...And the electrified version of an oil lamp moves to our rustic Knotty Pine kitchen. I'm still not happy with the creeping ivy on the wall paper though, so that will be updated soon enough.
And last but not least, here is our new end table/table lamp. Why did these ever go ut of production?

I also changed out the front doorknob, and added the cool tiki bird trim:
