How to remove a flush mount light cover?

Question

I can't figure out how to remove a Minka Lavery 2 light which is flush mount. I need to replace the bulb and I don't know how to remove the cover?? Some help please!!

Answer 1

some of them you just pull on . they are held in place by spring steel wire..

Answer 2

If there's a plate on the bottom like the lamps in the first link, that center part unscrews so that you can pull the globe off and get access to the bulbs.

Others have thumb screws on the base (usually 3) that you loosen to remove the globe. Some use a spring clip to hold the globe on - in which case you simply pull on the globe to expose the bulbs.
