Today I wanted to focus some attention back on our mini kitchen makeover. Now that we've painted the cabinets and installed the hardware, I'm ready to get the lights changed out. I've been looking around for two larger lantern lights to replace the three small lights above our kitchen island and I've narrowed it down to three. Here is a picture of our kitchen with the small lights:
And again here's a breakdown of our mini kitchen makeover agenda:
new lighting (replace 3 small pendants with 2 larger pendant lights)
replace backsplash (really excited about some ideas I have for the backsplash)
Enjoy your day!
Your kitchen looks so pretty! I like #1!
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous!! I love the second one.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful kitchen! My vote is #2. Can't wait to see it all finished!
ReplyDeleteI love the rustic light pendant. They are all so pretty and I know how hard it is to decide. I think the rustic light pendant will help add a different element to your design and will be the perfect size. The other two choices are very pretty but both have a white shade which might blend in with your white cabinets. I think the glass pendants will really stand out, adding elegance with just a tiny bit of rustic touch. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat points Ellora! It is so hard to decide, so I really appreciate your thoughts :)
DeleteAgree with what Ellora said, definitely #2.
ReplyDeleteThanks Stephanie!
DeleteI actually think that the framed linen would look really good. It is not dark and dramatic like the others..but they are a similar to what you already have, but a bit cooler. I think that the white linen would actually pop out and create a subtle drama and the chrome on it matches the hardware that you have on your cabinets. Plus, the square looks more modern. Don't get me wrong. I really like all three. :)
ReplyDeleteHold on. What does the lighting look like in the eating area of your kitchen? Is it the same standard stuff or did you switch it out? If it is the same standard stuff and you don't plan on switching it then the rustic will have to be the one. If not, then you have options.:)
ReplyDeleteGreat points Carrie! I actually did change out the breakfast light awhile back. It is more modern looking, but has a darker finish. So, I'm torn because my favs are really #1 & #2. Sometimes I think #2 because of the darker finish and more rustic look, which would match my fireplace, etc. But I love #1 for it's more modern look and I love the linen shade! I think I could get away with the nickel finish, because like you said it would match my hardware and go with the stainless too. I also over analyze a bit, but love other options besides Grant's :)
DeleteAnother vote for Choice #2!
ReplyDeleteYour kitchen is lovely!
ReplyDelete#2 is amazing. We are in the middle of trying to figure out what we want to do in the kitchen. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone ~ I really appreciate all your thoughts and opinions! Looks like #2 is in the lead!
ReplyDeleteThe kitchen looks great! My vote is for number 1. =)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful kitchen. I love the new white cupboards.
ReplyDeleteThey are all pretty, but number 2 is similar to what you have only larger with a clear glass. So I leaning toward number 1.
