Which pendant lights for new build?
Comments (7)Thank you for your advice! I didn't know that lantern was called the Darlana, thank you as it is so beautiful! I like that idea too because I am using lanterns in the front of the house. Do you think I should use the gold or rubbed bronze (or black?) with the chrome faucet and pulls? What types of fixtures coordinate with it? I have been searching Houzz for ideas but am curious what I should use in the formal dining room, breakfast nook, and foyer that will coordinate but not be too matchy matchy with the Darlana?...See MoreHelp with Island Pendant Lighting - PB Flynn Oversized Pendants

Comments (40)Dyan - since you already have recessed lighting, what if you went with a smaller version of the chandelier over the island instead of pendants? https://www.lampsplus.com/products/lacey-16-inch-wide-black-4-light-led-round-chandelier__47m81.html I'm sorry I don't have pictures to post yet (am waiting to repaint) but I have a smaller island too and I went with a matching close-to-ceiling drum light from the same collection that my hanging drum light over my kitchen table is from. I like how they coordinate and have gotten a lot of compliments on them....See MoreWhat pendant lights would look good over kitchen island?
Comments (26)how much space between the pendants. Ann, in both comments I mentioned a guide up in my first comment. I guess you keep missing it? here it is again,,,with 3 others. these should give you the needed spacing to choose pendants. while you can play around w/the distance between them, the height should be right at 30" or so, with no more than 36" from the countertop. Since you're going smaller, you don't have to do the 30" between. smaller sized pendants can be a tad bit closer 7" is a mini pendant and far too small to use over your island. shoot for 10-14"...See MoreEllen Jackson
