Also hung so low, I worry about people getting decapitated if they stand on the bed. Not sure what to do with it; it does provide all the light in the room. ideas? I don't think i can paint it since its so plasticky and shiny.~ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11836080983278597451noreply@blogger.com
