Loving the aesthetic of these vintage style, industrial-look lights.

Took a trip to the Bouchtouche Dunes with friends today.

Added some sheer curtains to our wall of lights for a glowy effect. (I'll get a curtain rod or something to better hang them at some point.)

PS - Happy 31st birthday to our eldest son today. We had him over for takeout and birthday cake, then movie night with the fam! (Bummed that I forgot to take photos 🙄)

Attached the headboard to the bed, added the cage bottoms to the sconces, and hung some string lights behind it.

After one coat of Varathane in Linen White, it took on a weathered grey effect. Though it looked very nice like that also, I kept adding coats of white until it became light enough for our room. Then I added a couple of industrial looking light fixtures. I used a spade bit to drill a hole for the wiring to achieve a cleaner look. Once that was finished, I just needed to drill holes in the supports in order to attach it to the bed.
