I think the lanterns will complete your gorgeous plan --- did you see the thread with the 101 amazing kitchens by blondelle (somebody else also linked this recently)? There are several in there that feature the sea green cabinets (they are so pretty BTW) and the majority of them have some form of lantern or other type of pendant. In the notes of those kitchens, that discusses the elements to copy, they are often a critical element. I'll try to link it.... , but if not, here is the site.... http://www.cotedetexas.blogspot.com/2009/01/kitchens-101-elements-to-copy.html Your plan is so warm and inviting --- I can't wait to see it complete. Also, the rest of the kitchen is so great, I think your other fixture would be OK as well, but the lantern concept could really make it pop. -Rachel Here is a link that might be useful: Fabulous kitchens

Check out Rejuvenation -- we got a really pretty semi-flushmount Mission two light for over our sink (the Bernard). They have many, many different options, and you can customize finish and shades on many of them. I don't think lights in the two different rooms need to be matchy-matchy, although you'll want something Arts&Crafts-inspired for both rooms, and maybe use the same finish.

over the island i would rather see something like this, than individual pendants over the isalnd. for the sink, i would do one 'down' light. 3 to me is overkill and 2 will look 'weird'. are you installing under cab lights as well? with the undercab lights, it will help with the sink area. 'down' light another example(where all the light is down in your sink - none 'escaping' up or out of course get the fixture to scale with the space.

Hi! Sorry I missed seeing this earlier. I think along with the ABB club (all but the backsplash) maybe we need to start the ABP (all but the pendants)! Would you mind sharing a photo of the keeping room? I think it would help to see more of the adjoining space that has more of the gold accents. I am a big fan of mixing metals too. I can tell you definitely want them to have the gold finish, or possibly a mix of gold, with black and/or white. Hey, at least you are narrowing it down! Haha! Of the ones you posted above, I think #1 or 4 might work since they are mostly glass and the gold part is subtle. Between those two, I like the shape of the pottery barn one better. I have sensitive eyes, so I personally couldn’t handle the exposed bulbs. Also, I am super lazy and the glass will need more cleaning. They are very pretty though! #2 and 4 just don’t feel like they fit your kitchen’s style. Although, I do like how 4 has a mix of the gold, black, and white glass. 5 is just so-so for me. Here is a mock up of the pottery barn pendant. Of course it would look more see through in real life. Again, sorry if the scale is way off! I tried this one because it was similar to #4 being a mix of the gold, black, and white, but I think the style works better. I thought I would try this one since it has the gold you like. I like this style and am always drawn to this one. This is similar, but in black. I really loved the wavy glass on this one. Well I sure hope I didn’t just confuse you even more. 😬
