DIY: How to Replace a Light Fixture

December 6, 2016

This time of year gets very busy with all the prepping for the holidays. If you are trying to update your homes during this season it can get a little overwhelming. With this in mind, I think a great place to start is with new lighting. It’s one of the quickest and easiest ways to transform a space. A new chandelier in the dining room, entry way or new pendants over the kitchen island will have a beautiful impact on the overall look and feel of your home. Today, I want to share with you an example of a dining room where the new light made all the difference and how you can easily replace your light fixtures yourself.

For this dining room I wanted a chandelier that was grand enough to make a statement, but with a pretty coastal vibe. The white hanging beads and gold details of this light were the perfect fit for this space. This light was a splurge, but well worth it. If you want to invest in lighting, but make it a more affordable update, replacing it yourself is a great way to save money. Having someone replace the lighting throughout your house can really add up. Fortunately, I’ve found an excellent resource for how to replace a light fixture. DIYZ is a new app I use for all my DIY projects.

The DIYZ app is an easy way for me to pull up all the information and guidance I need to tackle home improvement projects with confidence. For this project, all I had to do was a quick search on how to replace a light and it gave me a full overview of the project.

The app instructed me on everything I needed to do the job starting with the difficulty level and time it would take. It even gave me a complete material list to get started. I needed a couple of items so I was able to order them online, directly from the app, and they were delivered right to my door.

From there all I had to do was follow the detailed step-by-step instructions. There were 10 steps for this project with clear pictures and how to videos if I needed.

The process was easy and straight forward from there. I love that it made replacing a light so doable on my own.

Thanks for joining me for this post on replacing a light fixture. See below for a reference guide on how high to and where to hang your chandelier. I hope you have a wonderful day!.
