In need of a light fixture for one of the HHbathrooms that we're currently working on, we tookanother trip to the attic. We found an old fixture thatonce hung in the hall and added globes from a fixturethat years ago hung in the Master bedroom. However,we still needed something to serve as a medallion atthe ceiling, but nothing new was going to work so wetook an old plate charger, drilled a hole and BOOM!DONE!
