Comments (39)Hi, Lisa! A couple of thoughts: What are your thoughts about cabinet hardware? If you are doing cabinet hardware, do you want the lighting fixtures to match? I did. My two island lanterns, my breakfast table chandelier and my cabinet hardware are all in an antique nickel finish. My home is a Tudor style and the nickel has sort of a pewter look, which fits the Tudor style. Also, my cabinets are two toned; the perimeter are a whitish with a charcoal island, walls a very pale grey with medium brown wood floors. Your color palette seems to include a lot of grayed tones, from the “nickel linen” glaze to the tile and stone work. How do you feel about mixing metallic tones, like in jewelry mixing white and yellow gold for the two-tone look? I have seen where that is something of a trend to mix metal finishes but is that for you? When looking at pendants it is easy to also consider coordinating chandeliers or fixtures as they are usually being shown on the same page if you are shopping online. Something that I have done to help determine what size (or color or shape or pattern) is to print out pictures as close to real life size as possible (I am able to print legal size) on some kind of photography paper. If I have to, tape a couple together. I would possibly print out all three because I have sometimes found that something that I liked 1 of, I was not as crazy about in multiples. It’s kind of like putting paint samples on the wall so that you can see it in the room....See MorePendants over kitchen island
Comments (1)I like the current pendants, but the Burke pendants you're thinking about are very cool. Not sure those coordinate as well with the table fixture, but that wouldn't dictate my decision....See MorePendants Over Kitchen Island 2 or 3
Comments (12)I really like clear glass pendants much better than anything else because I like to see through them and have them be less prominent but to alleviate the glare issue, I used Edison bulbs. I searched high and low for ones with the spiral filament (so they are interesting to look at) that matched the Kelvin temperature of my cans (all 3500). Most of the Edison lights I found were 2700 which was going to be way too yellow against the cooler can lights. But I did finally find them. I don’t find the glare to be an issue at all. I don’t use the pendants that frequently—usually just if someone is sitting at the island having a late night snack or something....See MoreElizabeth
