Need Design Help for Lighting Above Table.

11 years ago

We just updated our kitchen with white painted cabinets, Taj Mahal quartzite counters, a backsplash and new appliances. I bought this light but not loving it. Any ideas? My hardware is a polished nickel but the hardware of the curtain rods are black. Also I'm thinking of adding 2 small pendants over peninsula. Yes or no and what would look best?

I would do a white pendant over the table and clear glass cylinder pendants over the peninsula.

I am thinking polished nickel fixtures with a milk or clear glass for the three pendants. Something similar to the one over the table. Unless you are willing to change that fixture too, then I would go with raw-iron this a very simple elegant globe. It will make it pop instead of blend.

I love the milk glass look but I think changing the light above the tablets the way to go. Are you thinking an Orb type chandelier in an iron? I do love the orb look!

I like the second one! That's what I was thinking about actually, the cage one. It will add some personality.
