Lights, Lights & FLOORS!

This weekend much fun was had getting the rest of the light fixtures ready to hang.

The official count is 52 light fixtures will be going up in the bar.  Holy Crap!!!!!

GIANT red glass float that I wired-up to make into a light.  This one will hang from the highest peak over the porthole door outside!

& a couple fish traps that I made into lights that I added an Amber Shellac coating to make them look "old"

& then there's this guy - the BIGGEST pufferfish I've ever seen.  Sunday's project was to make him into a light.  Usually these things are filled with MILES & MILES of plastic that have to pulled out with tongs & tweezers, an occasional razor blade & otherr garbage.

But - it was my LUCKY DAY!!!  He was completely empty.  I found an hour ++ in my day & a lot of hassle WOOHOO! 

A view inside:

He'll look something like these when lit!

& I LOVE this lamp, but have not found a good spot for it in this house & didn't want to sell it.  So, this weekend, looking at it in the garage, I had a great idea to turn it into a pendant fixture & put it in the bar - yay!!

What it was.....

& Now a Pendant!:

& Then Monday our floors started going in, which are made out of old whiskey barrels - looking good!!!
