Swaggin'

We have each hit our head on the dining room chandelier countless times over the years.  You see, the light is centered smack dab in the middle of the ceiling.  But our dining room table is off center so we have a clear  path through the dining area between the kitchen and living room.  

Our choices were to move the entire junction box, or swag the light.  We picked the less laborious option: Swaggin'.

It required re-wiring the light so we had the overall wire length we needed, and a new length of chain along with a hook kit, which totaled around $13.

There you have it.  No more annoying head trauma at dinner time.
