Another week, another round of lighting checked off my list! Last week, I shared the lighting we decided on for our Kitchen,Hallway, Mudroom, Our Doors and Avery & Tabari's bedrooms. We finally have all our lighting nailed down and purchased. Last I let off last off, we were still undecided on lighting for our bedroom, living room and dining room & bathroom. I'm back to share our lighting choices. Here's the lighting we decided on for our spaces.
Here's where our new lighting will be hanging in our home. 1. We loved this drum shade chandelier from Overstock in our room before, and decided to bring it back in. Tip: I was able to get all the lighting we purchased from Overstock with a 10% discount thanks to looking for discount codes online. 2. We have an area in our room (space between our closet/bathroom & french doors) that needs lighting, I didn't want anything hanging down looking funky from our bedroom - so after looking for a while, I came across this crystal flush mount light, that I love! I can't wait to see this beauty hung. 3. Four our living room we nixed our ceiling fan, something we were planning on doing, and decided to go with a double drum shade, you all know how much we love drum shades :) Tip: I signed up for a Lamps Plus 'new homeowner' and was able to save $20 on our lighting fixture 4. On our idea board, we had two lights we both loved, but in the end we decided to go with a more affordable option that would still sparkle a little. 5. I've been on the hung for pretty and affordable bathroom lighting, which seems nearly impossible! I finally lucked out with this darling modern retro for our master bathroom.
I'm really excited to see how the lighting in our living room / dining room & kitchen lights will all flow together since those rooms are open to each other now that we enlarged the doorway between the living room & dining / kitchen areas. I'm hoping they all compliment each other nicely once hung.
All of our lighting will be installed in a few days, so looking forward to seeing the house lit up.
What's your favorite lighting fixture in your home?
Pinterest Pin of the Week, is where I share my favorite Pin of whatever has been on my mind during the week: Decor, DIY, Gardens and Food and much more. Custom window coverings can be very pricey. Fun Fact: When I was younger I worked for Wards in the Custom Window Fashions Department selling custom blinds & draperies, so if you ever have questions about measuring, or determining fullness for drapes, email me :) Now back to my pin of the week, I've been thinking about buying pre-made roman shades and then adding patterned fabric or ribbon to create fully functional DIY custom shades. One bonus about using pre-made roman shades, is the new shades will be a 'little lined' for privacy.
Have a good weekend!
It's no secret I love white dinnerware! It's one of those classic looks and makes an everyday meal look more restaurant style. These days its easy to find pretty white dinnerware, which is a good thing. I'm currently on the hunt for a pretty white dinnerware set for my home. I recently found found five 16 piece dinnerware sets ranging in price from $ 75 - $ 40. All the dinnerware is pretty and affordable, which makes me super happy, because I plan on buying two sets.
In addition to pretty dinnerware, I've also been slowly buying 'Everyday Pretty' for our kitchen...and adding more items to my want list. I love these kitchen pretties what I consider 'kitchen essentials.'
Do you love white dinnerware? What's your must have kitchen essential?
