We had 80's style ceiling mounted lights above our vanities in most of the baths in our home. During our remodel, we are rerouting the wiring to put in traditional wall-mounted light fixtures. The reroute is really no big deal, wiring wise. It is a bit tricky to match some ceiling textures for the patching that needs to be done, though. In the rooms with little lighting, I look for light bars that can take a high wattage and it has really brightened up the rooms. There are restrictions regarding hanging lights over water. I know that where I live, a pendant light would not pass code over a tub, but I'm not sure about over a sink. Anyway, just thought I would chime in. Hope you get more responses. Sandy

We're wrestling with a couple of different code references here. In general: 1) You need at least one light in the bathroom that is controlled by a switch located at the entrance to the bathroom. 2) Light fixtures within tub and shower spaces should be marked "suitable for damp/wet locations". 3)Hanging fixtures cannot be located within a zone of 3Â horizontally and 8Â vertically from the top of the bathtub rim or shower stall threshold. So just because a pendant fixture is "damp" rated and meets provision #2, it can't be installed within the tub/shower zone due to provision #3, which prohibits hanging fixtures. Provision #2 is so fixtures in damp/wet areas do not corrode and become electrical shock/fire hazards. Provision #3 is so that if someone is standing in the tub or in the shower and slips, they don't instinctively reach up and grab a low-hanging pendant fixture and pull it down into the water with them as they fall.

thanks for the hint of dainolite. I found this one that's similar enough! http://www.lnt.com/product/pendant-lighting/52109-240304/dainolite-lighting-30961-cm-pendant-clear-glass-with-mesh-insert.html

@Porter, I didn't get the LED Edison bulbs yet-the store where we got the pendants gave me 3 halogen bulbs to see if it was better for me as I didn't like the yellow light at all. I am still going to order them when I do a Prime order to see the difference. That fixture is in a nook--off centered from the pendants--it comes with a chain ;however I am undecided if a table is going to go there or it will stay open, so had it semi-flush mounted. Does it look odd or out of place? @Beth, Right now they are 34" so when the quartz is installed, it should be about 32 33" from counter to bottom of lights. They seem high, but any lower they are going to be in our eyes.
