Home Decorating Lighting

I just had a new kitchen light fixture installed, flush mount on the ceiling. At the time I didn't know about K and color temperature. I don't like the lighting it gives off. It is 4000K. Are there others that have different color temperature? Please advise me where to get them. I got this one at Home Depot.

Yes, you can get LED fixtures that have selectable color and selectable lumen output, sometimes in the same fixture. Home Depot should have one.

This Sunlite HD02982-1 13" flush-mount fixture allows you to select a color temperature. It's just one of many at Home Depot. I'd recommend it's use with an LED-compatible dimmer; the Lutron DVCL-153PR-WH is a good one.
