Lighting Tips

When lighting up your space it’s best to always remember lighting should be layered to create balance. Strategic placement of task, ambient, accent, and decorative lighting creates a comfortable living space and prevents harsh lighting from one source of light in one area of the room.

Pendant lighting over a kitchen island helps direct light and adds style!

Table Lamps are a smart resolution for task areas in your space. They can add symmetry in pairs and really complete the space and are functional for bedrooms, buffets, side tables & consoles.

Decorating Ideas

We love how ceiling medallions will finish off the space when hanging a chandelier, lantern, etc. Did you know how fantastic they are as art on your wall? Keep them white and paint a bold color on your wall and watch them pop. Paint several medallions different colors and create art of your own - then just wait for the “WOW” from your guests!
