My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Pendant sizing

13 years ago
Would a lantern pendant that is 14" W and 28" H be too small to go over a kitchen table that is 36" W and 54" L? The table is in a very open kitchen, not an enclosed room. I attached a picture of the lantern.

    You have selected a beautiful pendant. However, its size is more suited to go over your island. With that being said, find a coordinating, 30" chandelier for your table. Install it so that it hangs 30-32 inches from the top of the table. Remember, light fixtures are the jewelry of the room. They need to make a statement.
