I also love crystal chandies in the kitchen (14,18) and the beautiful glass covered candle sconces (#10) and the more industrial look of #'s 14 and 18. I like a little bit farmhouse and a little bit glam! Have you made your choice yet? Can't wait to see what you do!<br />Blessings,<br />PattiAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02897728865673891051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198642533840030075.post-71269708601130957692014-03-30T19:31:02.936-04:002014-03-30T19:31:02.936-04:00#4 is my favorite.

I have chosen three lanterns. Two will go over the island (marble top with a black base) and the third in the hall entry near by. The back splash is a pain.. I need to revisit your other post.

So, aside from the lantern lights, I really like number 9, with the shaded light over the island and also the sconce on the wall over the sink that matches, and I also like number 17 with the shades and wrought iron.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198642533840030075.post-49572290627132105942014-03-27T20:26:26.374-04:002014-03-27T20:26:26.374-04:00gotta say, I'm a lantern kind of gal!gotta say, I'm a lantern kind of gal!Debra@CommonGroundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04830455848744270459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3198642533840030075.post-48689304914196481182014-03-27T20:17:45.605-04:002014-03-27T20:17:45.605-04:00One would think picking out lighting would be rath...One would think picking out lighting would be rather simple....not so! For me, (I'm a bit of a coo-coo bird), especially in the kitchen, cleanliness would be an important consideration. I'm a bit of a romantic...so that would require a certain "moody"ness. Another factor would be...what direction is the kitchen facing....If there is good natural lighting or...not. I want a certain comfy feeling in a kitchen, elegant and lovely but at the same time warm and practical....canned lights would cost sooooo much money. Of course the design sensibility of the home would be a strong determination of my choice. Sooooooo...(drum roll please)....I would lean toward 13...just love it....would be easy to clean....Honorable mentions, for a variety of reasons, would be: 9 moody, really like; 16 very pretty; 2 love the kitchen but too many canned lights; 6 easy to clean. Choosing lights what a wonderful problem....!
