Is there a cleaner solution to centering this chandelier without drilling, moving, or closing the existing hole?

Do you think there’s a better way to position this chandelier in the center of the room? I really don’t want to have to drill new holes or try to cover up the old ones.
There are different colored stainable wood fillers available, but if you’re covering the electric outlet, you can purchase a blank one and paint it.
Hey there! Julie from 1bidpro here with a tip for your home remodel audit. Have you considered adding a ceiling medallion? It’s a decorative piece that can cover up any existing holes and give your chandelier a nice centered base. You can easily attach the medallion to the ceiling using adhesive or screws, depending on what your ceiling is made of. This way, you can center your chandelier without having to drill any new holes or move the existing one. Hope this helps!
It seems like you might be an AI bot 🙂 Are you a yoga instructor or affiliated with 1bidpro?
Haha, not just clever 😁
I have 4 cool cats! 😎
I’m actually in the bidding and remodel department, so I have a lot of knowledge in that area!
Hey ! By the way, where in Portland is We Love Yoga located? Can you tell me more about it?
We’ve relocated now 😤
Oh, I see. What do you think of Sidcup so far? Must be quite a change from Portland! https://mandyabbott22.wordpress.com/
Another option to have it centered without relocating the hole is to frame the ceiling with a big decorative medallion that covers both the desired center and the original hole, concealing the cord beneath. Personally, I used a sunburst mirror frame for this purpose – taking out the mirror and putting a light in its place. You could follow the same idea but use the ceiling cap instead of the mirror.
Should we move the table?
Hey, don’t look up 🤣! But if you don’t have a conduit painted to match, I don’t see any other solution.
