Joann on Jun 17, 2016I upcycled one of those in a bathroom. It was a bit of work, but not complicated. 1. Build a "shadow box" deep enough to cover the sides and leave room for the bulbs; 2. Trim with crown molding; 3. Insert opaque plastic in front; 4. Insert bulbs and slide the box over the fixture. Note: Mine seemed secure, but just to be safe I drilled a hole through shadow box and fixture and put in an easily removable peg. To change the bulb I pull the peg and slide the shadow box off the fixture. This is a small fixture. If yours would be too heavy to remove easily, you could make the glass/plastic slide out.Helpful Reply
