For us, the best part of making-over the dining room was getting rid of the unattractive chandelier left behind by the previous owners. The worst part of all - it was filthy! Completely too large and too dark for the small dining space it took over the room.
We replaced the chandelier with a crisp and elegant five light fixture from the Quinn collection by Kichler pictured below.

A few more 'after' photos of the space. I think we're finally ready for our first dinner party!
