A Lovely Switch

I'm afraid I have no elaborate before and after pictures today; the work on the kitchen ground to a halt this weekend to enjoy a sunny father's day and some strawberry picking! I did however convince my husband to switch out our light fixture for something a little less......well, this:

Not only was it ugly, but neither the light nor fan was functional! So what replaced it? That pretty $10 chandelier I purchased garage sale-ing last weekend...

  

So much better! I managed to suppress the urge to spraypaint this one. I kind of like the colour. Am I crazy?
