Kitchen Island Pendant Size….

It is crucial to get the size right, you want to make sure the pendant doesn’t pull away the focus from the kitchen. You want it to frame your island. It is task lighting but you also want to compliment your style. When choosing a pendant for kitchen islands or bench tops, consider the light already available to you and let your pendants fill in the gaps.

Consider the size of your kitchen, the size of your island, the size of the over all space. How high are your ceilings? Too small and your pendant will get lost, too big and the space will look cluttered.

Try making cardboard cutouts of the pendant shapes and sizes you like and hold them up in the space to get an idea of what works best before you buy.

To combine style and functionality, go for a row of matching pendants. The repetition will reinforce the design of the light and create a striking focal point in the room.
