Also if you have any suggestions for what to replace the ceiling fan with, I’d welcome those!

It looks great with just the dark wall color. Don't put anything above the cabinets, which just emphasizes a space you don't want to highlight. The only thing you need to do is change the fan/light. Whatever you choose will need to coordinate with your dining chandelier, but from this photo it doesn't look centered over your table. Are you keeping it? Post another photo looking into the kitchen from the other side of the table to see how the two fixtures will relate to each other. Is recessed lighting possible?

If you don't need the fan, just remove it. It doesn't look like it does much good up that high anyway.

I like the bare space above your cabinets. I would leave it that way.

Don't put anything up there; that green and white are stunning together. It looks so airy now. Deco on top the cabinets will just look cluttered.

If you need the fan (and it might be very helpful for circulating air with those high ceilings), you could maybe replace it with a fan only unit that sits closer to the ceiling. I would think about low-profile uplighting that would bounce light off the ceiling. Done right, that could give you nice indirect ambient light without visible fixtures (you would have to dust the fixtures occasionally). Done right (again) you should be able to avoid "hot spots" on the walls or ceiling.

Thanks everyone. The chandelier will be centered once the new table is brought in. I think you’re all correct-nothing is better than clutter.

Do you think something like this would coordinate well with the chandelier?

I would prefer a fan on a longer rod so it lands just at the top of the cabinets. Be sure to use LED lights under the upper cabs. If you like that, you may decide to try them up top as well.

Do you use the fan often? If so, there are some very attractive contemporary fans available, the three blade ones are nice and not in your face. The one you’re looking at is very often used in multiples on an patio cover. If it’s not used a lot, I’d leave it off completely.

Another vote to leave it alone up there - that green is GORGEOUS. I love the idea of adding above cabinet lighting.

pretty kitchen

Wow you guys are fantastic! Thank you so much!

hi there, can you share the green color?

Of course. It’s herb bouquet by Benjamin Moore. https://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/color-overview/find-your-color/color/460/herb-bouquet?color=460

thank you so much

Beautiful kitchen and I love that color green, you nailed it with that color. I had a similar problem with high ceiling in my kitchen. Bought some pine bead board and put white pickling stain on it then installed on ceiling. Changed that previous empty space.

this fan will work with your farmhouse kitchen but that crystal chandelier, though pretty, is really misplaced.

I’m going to be the odd man out and say I’d like to see the space above the cabinets painted to match the cabinets do it doesn’t look so choppy. My eye is drawn to that space above the cabinets rather than your lovely cabs.
Then pull in that green with the backsplash. Agree with above on the chandelier being out of place here.

Bri Bosh, You have a very valid suggestion but her trim doesn't match her cabinets and the contrasting walls span the gap. Could be a better green.

The current green is muted and dark enough to recede. Making it brighter highlights it more.

Personally, I really dislike ceiling fans in kitchens. They're dust and grease catchers, and mess with the exhaust fan function.
I do like color on the walls.
