Kitchen and Dining Room Lighting

September 6, 2015

We are slowly working on updating the lighting in our kitchen, dining room, and foyer.  Todd and his brother changed the lights over the kitchen island!!  I have compiled some lighting favorites on Pinterest, and wanted to share them here as well.

Our new lights in the kitchen.  They are currently on sale for $84.99!!!

Before and after pictures below.

I am not dead-set on buying a new light fixture for the dining room immediately, but that project is on my radar.  As you saw above, I love the look of a huge lantern, or a long, rectangular light.  This is our current dining room light:

Also, here is the before and after of the kitchen lighting:

We chose these pendants from Capital Lighting.  The hardware above the globe lanterns are graphite and aged brass.  They have edison bulbs, which I bought from a local lighting store.

I am so happy with our new lights!  It is amazing what one change can do to a space.
