  11. Heck Ya! That is adorable Hilary and I'm going to show my daughter up in British Columbia what you've done. The funny thing is...who'd have thought that we'd revert back to having a single semi exposed light bulb hanging from our ceilings and LOVE it. Go figure! I love your kitchen and what you've done to it...it has such character and that light you made fits right in. You'll have to make one inside a mason jar next time ;) I hope your week is a good one...
