And for $30 for all three! You can't even get one for that price. This thrift shop gets a lot of architectural salvage, so everything is do dang cheap. They had a huge pile of doors from mansions it seemed bc they were so tall. Like for 10-11' ceilings! $50/pair. Wow. Too bad we can't use any of those. Our ceilings are only 8', those doors were already taller than our ceiling. |
Major score!!! Can't wait to see them.
We too just bought 3 pendant lights to go over our island - they're really big, so should make a statement. I'm going to use a salvaged board to attach the lights to - then attach the board to the ceiling.
