Kitchen lights

John says - A couple of German helmets just arrived from Amazon.........................

John accidently shattered one of the ones we already had in the kitchen with a plank of wood

Suzan says - Well if you hadn't broken one of the Kitchen lights I wouldn't have had to order a different set !

John says - Couldn't you have just replaced the one I broke ?

Suzan says - Nope - I don't want to be changing them every 6 months................these are indestructible.

John says - That's why they wore them in wars.

This is what we had

But to be honest with you - being glass - and being in a small kitchen - they constantly had to be cleaned.

I feel like I have to keep letting everyone know that the word MANGE is EAT in French - not MANGE as in the disease LOL !!!

If any of you decide to visit Montreal - you'll think all the restaurants have a warning on their windows of an outbreak of MANGE LMHO !!!

Now I have to wait patiently for my Son to come and install the helmets

( War is hell on the home front too - and God only knows what a woman goes through..................)

And that song ?

When my Son was 6 years old he was obsessed with it - used to go to bed with a tape recorder listening to it - and if that's not aging myself I don't know what is !!!

THAT'S how we used to listen to personalized music LOL - long before the ipod was invented.

If anyone's interested, the lights were 39.99 each - so even if this whole vintage industrial thing is a trend - at least they don't cost an arm and a leg...................

What you can't see in the site's pictures is that they're " distressed " along the edges - revealing a little bronze color
