And Mystic Garnet, the blades are original and untouched- we just turned them over to the espresso side from the oak color.

God love him, it's hideous. I've been thinking about converting the light shades to one small shade. I actually don't use the light part but can't sleep without the fan after March.

I am a new blogger and have been trying to redecorate on a budget, and once my husband gets over the bathroom renovation, we may have to tackle the bedroom ceiling fan!

My husband, who is slightly handy, took the whole "motor housing" apart. He said it was very easy, just make a simple drawing identifying where all parts go when putting back together. I painted the "vent" part and he was able to clean dust off the working parts and tighten any screws that had come loose. We have an unbelievably gorgeous new fan with just a little bit of money and some elbow grease! Our fan is black and "paper bag" color! Also, there aren't a lot of choices "down below" to publish my comment! How about just my Pinterest account?

Our ceiling fan looks similar to this, but I don't know how you kept the paint out of those "vents". Thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
