DD Update: Dining Room Divinity

I know you all have been craving some DD updates....Remember my brother & sister-in-law's Dining Room DD - their hopes to take it up a notch in the elegant, yet inviting department?
Well....take a lookey-look at what I had in my inbox this weekend...

If you ever needed convincing on the power of good lighting - here's your answer. I'm amazed (though not surprised) at the drama the lamps/lighting add to the room. The gothic church window just comes to life and takes center stage in the room - as it was meant to do.
I think Erica plans to replace the empire shades with black drums to tone down the traditional element of the trophy lamps, and perhaps add some more of that essential accessory layering, but I think this is a fantastic start - Well done, E&M!
FYI: here's the deets on the lamps

While I'm in Texas, I'll also have the chance to work on my Aunt's bathroom re-do, so I hope to have some good B&A pics of that DD before too long. If I can just survive the looooong travel day(s), many good times await!
