Think so? Im thinking bout just getting shades without prints on it lol Maybe for this fan something plain would be better suited.. They are quite dated in style, there's other fans I could see them looking better on.. like something with cane blades.. very 80s..

Alright. So you know how I told you about how I was gonna stop collecting while I was at school? Well turns out that was a lie. I turned 21 on Sep. 26 and ended up getting loaded with some money to add to my already struggling bank account. I bout a few things before my birthday, and one or two things after. I'm thinking about a few more things. So let me just let you all in on a lil thing I got going on... I ended up being bored a few weeks into september and went on craigslist and found two fans that I fell in love with. A Casablanca San Marino in snow white (with hermosa blade arms for some god knows reason) with snow white blades, and a spray painted matte black Delta I (it could be the original color, but I thought it was a lil sus that it had a white canopy) with snow white blades. I emailed both of the sellers and told them that I'd be back home for thanksgiving, and they both agreed to hold the fans for me until I get home. So I got those two coming in and waiting for me. Very excited. I also bought a Nutone Slimline with cresent brackets (but its not a Slimline II...strange) that was delivered to my house. So I also have that waiting for me when I get home But now onto what I got at school The W8 I had before is dead. so I ordered a new one Now one of my new FAVORITE fans I ever got. EVER. A seller in upstate New York was nice enough to ship me his Casablanca Victorian for $100. Immediately jumped on that. I almost came with a center glass, but it got destroyed in shipping. The only thing that needs to be fixed is the flywheel, and that should be no problem. W11. Possibly ordering a LCA for it because there was no mounting bracket. It was so big, he decided to ship it in two boxes I got part 3 of my Zephyr project in the mail. A W85. All im waiting on is a board I ordered. I'm also bidding on a cheap board/harness/control package on ebay for the IT3 I want for my Hermosa. lol ITS OFF LIMITS TO YALL. I NEED THAT BOARD COMBO GUYS A Snow White K44S for either the San Marino or the Hermosa I found a Hunter Low Profile II that was being sold near my school. The seller drove it up to my dorm and let me have it for 20 bucks. NIB So i stuffed it all under my bed lol Thats it for now! More to come later!

I really don't have anywhere to store ceiling fans, and I've pretty much filled the entire basement with portable fans, so I'm trying to avoid buying any more ceiling fans until I have somewhere to hang them.. but it sure will be nice one day to be able to hang them wherever I want lol
