Dinning room lighting

11 years ago

I have a open concept house and I'm putting a chandelier over my kitchen island. What should I put over the dinning room table which is not far from the island? Should I carry on the theme and do a similar chandelier just bigger? I should mention the style of my house is a mix of old English cottage and old farm house. I have to old school house lights I thought I could put over my dining room.... Any ideas?

I would recommend maybe putting the schoolhouse lights over the dining table, especially if they're pendants. Let the island chandelier sparkle and shine without possibly being 'upstaged' by another chandelier right near it, if that makes sense. The schoolhouse lights would be perfect for your decor style. Let me know if you need advice on hanging heights or just any other help!
