When it comes to recessed lighting its usually the last thing that comes to mind in decorating when it should be the first in creating a room that makes you happy. Good lighting influences and sets the mood, bad lighting makes you look God awful and has been known to ruin a good picture or three. Halogen lamps are so circa 1988; plus *womp womp* they have been know to burn down a house like a maniacal deep fryer. Folks. Good lighting is worth the effort. Here’s a roundup of some cutesy finds.
Purple Splash on Orange Shade, Lamps Plus. Silver Oval Pendant Lamp, Wrapables. Red Penelope Pendant Light, Lamps Plus, Sol Pendant Lamp, West Elm Countess Square Scramble, Lamps Plus. Stacy Garcia Spice Dahlia, Lamps Plus.
Which one is rocking your boat?

Countess Square Scramble
Dane Pendant Lamp
Love ‘em both! I’m looking for substantial fixtures because my room has a 16-18 foot ceiling. Cavernous doesn’t begin to describe it. Anything small would be engulfed. LOL

Love all the ones at the bottom. Really.
And I nearly burned down the house with a halogen – definitely a no go.
