How many pendant lights do I need for an 8' dining table?
Comments (0)Hi, We have a 3'x8' dining table in our formal dining room. We are thinking of Fucsia Suspension lights. They come in groups of 1, 3, 8, 12 pendants to a group. So to provide enough lights for the dining table do we go with two groupings of 'Fucsia Three Light Suspension Lamp' (see link below) OR one set of 'Fucsia Eight Light Suspension Lamp' http://www.ylighting.com/fuscia8.html OR single pendants - if so how many? Is there a formula? Thanks Here is a link that might be useful: Lights...See Morestruggling with choosing LED pendant light choices
Comments (5)If the fixtures you're considering use the A19 standard bulb type, the deciding factors would come down to build quality, design and style. The brand name does play a part in the pricing. A track system is convenient way to ensure that the lights all line up, but the style and cost may not make sense. I think getting the correct style that suits your family is just as important as raw light output....See MorePendant light over sink is it bright enough?
Comments (1)We have a 50watt halogen directly over the sink. It is backed up by three additional 50watt halogen flood bulbs in pot lights in the ceiling at the counter's edge along the sink side of kitchen. Plenty of bright light the halogen bulbs provide...way more light than regular incandecent floods I used there before....See MoreRethinking my island pendant lights - help me choose.
Comments (13)Well, it sounds like schoolhouse pendant wins!! Definitely in pewter? Is brushed nickel ok? (one manufacturer I'm looking at only offers that.) Faucet is chrome but it's the only chrome thing in the room, so that shouldn't make a difference, right? Would the brush nickel coordinate well enough with the appliances? I'd think so, but I'm no finish expert. EEEEE I'm getting so excited! I ordered all the appliances yesterday, should be in in 10 days! And my contractor just sent me a picture of the island in with the new floor!...See Morecathy725
