Circa Lighting is on a Road Trip and they have stopped in Colorado! I am excited to share this news with you and am thankful to Circa Lighting for including me. Please click here to find my favorite fixtures.

Choosing the right light fixture for a kitchen island is an important step in your kitchen design. You want something beautiful and functional, right? So here are my tips for creating a perfect combination of island size, ceiling height, and pendant size.
In this kitchen....
Island Size: 46" wide by 94" long
Ceiling Height: 8'
Pendant Size: 13 1/2" wide by 21 1/2" high (to the top of were the 3 chains meet).
The family uses this island table as the main eating area. (So we needed something especially beautiful, since they would spend so much time there!) We chose this lighting fixture because it's so unique and adds a focal point to the room. We didn't use pendants over the other island in the kitchen that serves as a work space with a sink because we didn't want anything to compete with these lights. Aren't they gorgeous?
In this kitchen....
Island Size: 48"wide by 118"long
Ceiling Height: 10'
Pendant shade size: 4 3/4" wide at top x 15" slant x 12 3/4" wide at bottom
Because the ceiling is 10 feet high, we could get away with a more dramatic presentation. (Hooray for drama!) We chose three light fixtures to create a presence over the island. Do you love it?
