Uroboros5, Sail-away, Dianalo, FKS3: thanks for the charcoal vote. I will be getting that one reframed. Can't wait to get that done. I've been dragging my feet to spend the $. Pupwhipped, Love it-what you said about Cleveland. I am going to cut that sucker down. Michoumonster, thanks for the fish vote but I probably wont go with that one. I think the size is right. It needs remounting. The print is a little stiff for me in this room I think, and I don't like all of the white background. I must be leaning towards more color. Sochi, I love those darned poppies, I've had it hung in that location for years in my UGLY old kitchen and didn't care one bit that it was large. Then, the white frame was ok because there was other white in the room. But now I agree that the frame is wrong. I don't know if the print would survive a reframing. Stacey, thanks for the tips and I will watch that Youtube video. I have been thinking I could even see if I could get a set of "paintings" out of the one. That might be too much. A simple single might be best with this print.

Thanks for your input everyone. I ordered the Darien pendants but am second guessing my choice. My kitchen is more traditional, and although I love the Darien, it may not be the right choice for my kitchen. Part of what drew me to pick the Darien was the larger size (8" vs 5 3/4") and that it comes with a stem kit. The Boston pendants are 44.5" long unless you custom order them for an additional $88 each. At 44.5" long, they would be 37.5" off our countertops, which are 38" tall. My husband and I are both 6' tall, and it think I would want the pendants to be a little higher up, probably around 40", to feel like they aren't in my face but I don't know for sure. Our ceilings are 10' high. How high off the counters would you have the pendants in our case? I also am trying to pick a fixture for over the breakfast table but am not finding anything I love. Here are two fixtures I am considering. What are your thoughts on how these would work with either pendant? Any suggestions of something different to look at?

@RL Relocation LLC thank you. There is a fixture already installed above the sink to provide the entire kitchen with lighting. No bulb installed yet though. Wiring for the lighting above the peninsula is easy. The wires currently run in a layer between the exposed rafters and the external roofing. Hence a source for each pendant light drops down either from the rafter or drilled through the beam I am only looking for suggestions of pendant lights for above the peninsula that will fit the design of the kitchen

Both are way too large for the scale of your kitchen. They will overbear the space and give you very poor lighting for a working kitchen, which seems in this photo to be very dark. Looks like you have 8 ft ceilings, some slop and a recessed area? I would really think about 3 ft fixture over a 5 ft space . this will make you feel like the room is even smaller.................I wouldn't put pendants in this room AT ALL.............
