Time for a quickie

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

These lights had been driving me NUTS in our main bathroom.  They are way to small for the GIANT mirror and the don’t really provide enough light for the whole room.  They took great care to match all of our light fixtures since they all have this octopus thing going on that I can’t stand.
