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.

Right height for island pendants

13 years ago
Hi need some help with distance between counter and light....the pendants are 18"" diameter and the ceiling height is 9 feet!!!
It is 45" now but looks a little high to me! Also what distance should the two pendants be spaced apart? The island is 8 feet long.
Thanks so much for the help!
