How low do your island pendants hang? Worried about height...
Comments (25)Hi again! My island is 51" wide and 62" deep - the granite was actually just installed last night so now you can really see the lighting scenario! I think it would support only ONE of the basket weave pendants posted b/c that is 23" in diameter so I'd hang it really in the center. I think it could support two pendants of a traditional kind if they were between 10 and 20" in diameter, you know? I feel like I'm fighting the industrial pendant trend - and it's not because I don't like how it looks! It's just that everyone puts them in and they all look the same and in three years, something else will be the "everyone" option, you know? Can't decide now if the basketweave up there will bring in the pretty coloring and balance the granite, adding interest up in the air, OR detract. What do you think?...See MoreWant to create my own low cost rod over window to hang valance
Comments (6)IF your window is not to wide.. check out a piece of PVC pipe and you can either paint it the color you want and add a covered styroform ball at the end for the finial or just use a curved piece of PVC joint piece. they are smooth and the tabs would flow over it nicely.. you could spray paint it black, gold , white, any color that would go with your bathroom or valance.. I have seen folks use these with bracket hung up side of window and slip pvc piece over it.. or you can go to Big Lots and get a very inexpensive rod.. but sure would not be as much fun.. if you know someone who has a cane..you could use it.. even a piece of straight rebarb and it can be bent to work also.. might be a little harder.. I have seen the door knobs done and that looks really cool.. sometimes.. just have to sit down and think outside the box and use crazy items to do normal things.. lOl baseball bats have been used and so have hockey sticks.. Good luck and besure to take a pic and let us all see what you did. Huggy...See MoreDo my drapes hang too low?
Comments (8)From my height perspective, I can see the window just fine. I can't help wondering how they will look for a much taller person. When I look straight at them in the dining room, they look a little low but generally o.k.. When I look at them from my hallway, they look like curtains for a little person (no disrepect intended). I have the same bay window in my living room with a cornice valance and fingertip curtains over a window seat. There is no blockage of the window in the living room and it looks great. I would like to use the designer again for other projects in my home but I want to make sure that the valance length in the dining room is correct and I should not ask her to redo it....See MoreHow low can a chandelier hang in a living room space?
