This isn't your Forever Home. Don't spend more than a couple hundred dollars for a light fixture for this home.

Expensive lighting can move from home to home with you as would your furniture. In our last home we spent a lot on great light fixtures but replaced with inexpensive Home Depot and Wayfair fixtures when we listed the house. We took the expensive lighting with us and installed it in our new home. It was fun to mix it - use our old dining room chandelier in our bedroom, a living room chandelier in our new foyer.

Most of the decorative lighting in my house is from the house I grew up in. My sister has a pair of fixtures from there that have moved with her to two other houses. If you can change a light fixture because it's not age- or use- appropriate, you can also change it when you move.

Your current doors are simply plain doors with mouldings applied to the face. If you want solid doors those are easy to reproduce.


If you want a pair of door with glass, you might want something like one of these styles




These are Craftsman style doors and mouldings could be applied to the face of the doors to match your existing doors.
