I love light. The central fixture in most bungalows and classsic homes does not cut it.
These 4" adjustable baffle can lights on a dimmer are just the ticket.

Art lighting for the masses.
Small 4" eyeball remodel cans work wonders for lighting up those dark little corners of your home. AND for lighting up your exelcent taste in art. Note the appropriate usage of the picture frame molding.

Featured Project: Retro Redux
Thanks to a smoldering pair of eye shades a remodel was in order. The eye shades scorched the existing counter top and back splash.
Keeping with the character of the home we installed a Marmoleum counter top and back splash. For a retro accent we used metal edge banding on the outside edge of the counter top and a smaller metal strip on all inside corners.
Upgrades included electrical, plumbing, painting, refinished floors, sink, wall mount faucet, and under cabinet lighting.
This project has been submitted to Rejuvenations 'Home Make Over' Contest. Cast your vote for 'Ashley H, Portland, OR.'
