Drum Pendants...

Drum Pendants are commonly found in kitchens and dining rooms. But because of their clean, simple and linear nature, these light fixtures are easy to integrate in just about any room of the house. Before installing your drum pendant, play around with the height. Depending on the look you want to achieve, you may want your drum shade to hang very low or high up next to the ceiling. Make sure to always consider sight lines so as to not obstruct any decorative elements on your walls.

For the love of lanterns...

Long before electricity came about, ancient civilizations relied on lanterns as means of lighting.  Although they were purely utilitarian at the time, these glowing beacons have now become decorative staples in our homes. They are traditionally elegant, provide soft indirect lighting and make for interesting focal points. 

On a budget? Go to the lighting section at Home Depot - they have tons of choice. Want to splurge? Try Pottery Barn's Spencer lantern. For something more unique, go to an antique shop or flea market and have an old lantern rewired. From kitchens to entryways to patios to bathrooms, lanterns are a great addition to absolutely any space!
