We finally got our hands on the Chase Ceiling Mount I had wanted for the library, and we’ve already installed it! Brandon did most of the work while I held Eleanor and read the instructions to him.
It’s so much better than the light that was there before.
It’s understated, but it’s a perfect compliment to the room.

OMG.
I have been looking for the “before” curtains (yellow floral) everywhere and not been able to find them, Could you please tell me where, or how to find them.
I would appreciate it so very much.
Oh, and LOVE your blog.
Love your style and your family is ADORABLE!! :)

Gosh, your new light fixture looks fantastic and just your style, but I absolutely LOVE your old one! I would kill to have it in my apartment :) I wonder if I can find one like that at a salvage place or something…
Tommy Bahama Bedding
Ooh…I LOVE the new fixture – really sleek & modern :) It is a lot better than the original.

I love that light cover! It’s very film noir, something I would expect to find in Humprey Bogart’s room. However it also has a very simple & non-fussy feeling about it. Great choice!
Erin
Ooh. Love it. It fits perfectly.
Jen
We have the exact same “before” light in our porch! I think it must been available in the 50s or something, because we have a lot of lights in our old house from that era. We might replace it, but that’s WAY at the bottom of the list.
Kimbydee
Love it. The details definitely make a space…
Kim @ Yellow Brick Home

Even your CAT is a perfect compliment to the space! What a lovely, coordinated room- I am all envy.
Jen @ Primed4Design
My parents had that “before” light also near a staircase, so outdated 70’s! :) I’m such a fan of big pendant lights for your “After”, great choice :)
Heather
That’s a great idea! love it
Lourdes @ The Higher Nest
Wow. What a difference. I keep telling myself one day if we’re lucky we’ll have a place with as much style as yours.
Jess
I am just in *awe* of your decorating sense. Can you bottle it and sell it, please?
CapreeK
Oh, that light is just PERFECT for your room! Well done! Well done indeed.
luuvely
cute :)
Diana
Wow, looks great!
susan
that light is perfection. may I also say how much I yearn for a library like your landing library. it is swoon worthy.

I have that chair and I ADORE it. I cannot say it enough – btw to the person who asked if it is worth it? Yes yes yes. It rocks. Nicole, my question is this – I have that exact chair in that color with a simliar style table next to it only it is cherry wood finish. Across from this I have the Macy’s Corono sofa which is basically their knock off of the Petrie sofa – in a very dark brown. Recently I acquired some heywood-wakefield endtables also in cherry but I’m not loving them next to the chocolate brown. Any advice on a way to make that color combo work?
THanks, I realize you may not have time to answer this one.

Love the new light and the pics of Eleanor…she’s getting more cute by the week (if that’s even possible). Still think she’s keeping those blue eyes…like her daddy.
Karolina
hmmmm… Looks very nice!! I like your house :) and Eleanor is super cute!! :*
Jessibee
It looks so good! I love the library and can’t wait to see it if you get your hands on Orla Kiely fabric for curtains or whatever else you come up with. Everything looks so nice!
jbhat
I love it too. So clean and crisp. It really does look perfect in the room.
Christina
That looks absolutely amazing! I wish I had some of your talent.

The library is truly lovely and the light fixture just sets it all off. Do tell me where you got your drapes. I would love to get me a pair or two.
Cristina
The way it looks on you ceiling is MUCH BETTER than how it is portrayed on the web site. Now that I see how crisp it looks in your room I love it!
camila
I love it. It fits perfectly. I have a light like your old fixture in our upstairs hallways. Its one of those things that we never got to around to, but now that the majoy projects in the house are done It kills me everytime I see it when I walk up the stairs!

Where did you find the light? I would love something like that for my home office. Wonder if you can get them in the UK.

Lovely, I think it finishes the room off. I am not sure all that white and an eight week old baby are a match made in heaven mind. :)
Laurie
I love how a simple light fixture can make all the difference. Looks beautiful!
Meggan
Understated but FANTASTIC. That fixture is so pretty!
Jennifer
Oh it’s just lovely! Consider me a jealous renter — I wish I could do little upgrades like this in place.
Cindy
Very lovely! It goes nicely w/ the rest of the room.
Amy
That is nice! I have been looking for a new flush mount light..will have to add this one to the list!
Laura
Very nice! Question for you — how comfortable is the CB chair? I was considering saving for the couch and maybe the chair as well — was it worth the money? It’s absolutely gorgeous!
kribss
