I got this light free and decided it would be a great accent for the bathroom redo. It had been converted to an aquarium. It still had the plastic plants and gravel in it, boy did it stink. I took it apart, cleaned it well and let it sit open for a couple of weeks. I cut a vein and leaf stencil from contact paper, attached the vines around the globe and used etching cream to frost the rest of the glass. I did this twice to get a heavier frost. I bought a socket kit from the hardware store and rewired the light. I found a piece of chain to hang it up. Total cost $3.50, for the socket and hook to hang it on. AH had to run the wires through the ceiling because we had never had a light in the center of the room. He's handy that way.
