"You Can Do It. We Can Help."

Chris and I fancy ourselves DIY-ers for certain projects around the house. We have installed our own shelving in all of the closets, we’ve done all of the interior painting so far, Chris installed a digital thermostat, etc. We installed a gas range and hung the over-the-range microwave. We’re somewhat handy, so we thought installing a light in the kitchen shouldn’t be too hard. We finally decided to tackle the project today. Here’s the old fixture:
