Anna's $10 Pottery Barn Knock Off

Anna {Take The Side Street} picked up an old pendant light from The Habitat For Humanity Restore for $10:

{drab}
...and made it look like better than a Pottery Barn pendant: 

Gothic Outdoor Lantern, Bronze finish
In true DIY fashion, Anna stripped that light fixture of all it's parts and painted it with Rustoleum's Oil Rubbed Bronze, replaced the gold lamp wire with a black one, and put it all back together. 



Lovin' Anna's pendant better than the PB version {especially lovin' the price)!

hmmmm... this is putting thoughts in my head. I have a pendant light in my hallway that I really don't like. But perhaps it just needs a transformation... I am going to go check it out again with a new set of eyes! Thanks!
