Looking to ramp up the style in your kitchen, dining room or bathroom? Behold, the power of pendant lighting.

Pendant lighting is the perfect type of accent lighting to give your home a boost. In some cases it can even be a room’s main lighting. It’s all up to you. As your online source for sinks, faucets, tubs, pendant lights and more, we at My Sinks and Faucets are well familiar with the types of lighting that are popular in today’s homes. And pendant lighting fits the bill. Here are five things you need to know about pendant lighting.

Pendant Lights are Big on Style

Why choose lighting that has to hang close to the ceiling when you can choose pendant lights that dangle from the ceiling? Think of it as jewelry for your home’s interior. And they come in a variety of styles and colors that you are sure to love, such as our Edmonton Collection 16-Light Euro Bronze Pendant.

Pendant Lights Travel in Groups

Most pendant lights travel in groups of two or three it seems. You’ll find two flanking the mirror in the bathroom like our Bayonne Collection 1-Light Mini Pendant in Brushed Nickel, or maybe two larger pendants over the dining room table like our Brisbane Collection 6-Liight Hanging Euro Bronze Pendant. You often see three hanging over kitchen islands. Sometimes you may find one single pendant light in a foyer or entryway. Typically that pendant light is so amazing it doesn’t need any company.

Pendant Lights Perfect for Tall Rooms

So many of today’s modern homes have tall ceilings, and these are perfect for pendant lights. Pendant lights allow you to bring the light closer to where you are. And they do so in a stylish fashion. Get the light you want, where you need it with pendant lights.

They Love Kitchen Islands

As we already mentioned, kitchen islands are a magnet for a pendant light party. Most kitchen islands have two to three pendant lights hanging above, providing some great task lighting for the work you’re doing below. Our Athos Collection Renaissance Bronze 1-Light Mini Pendant comes to mind. This is a popular look you see in many homes today.

Pendant Lights Love Foyers

Some foyers are grand and call for a chandelier of sorts. Then there are others where a pendant light is the perfect choice. Don’t even think about a ceiling mounted light when you have the possibility of pendant lights like our Edmonton Collection 4-Light Euro Bronze Pendant. This four light pendant at 20 ¾ inches in height would be perfect for your foyer.
