OUR LIGHT FIXTURES

I don't love hunting for light fixtures. I have no trouble selecting plumbing, flooring, paint, etc....but finding lighting can be so frustrating. Generally, the biggest issue is finding fixtures that give off a soft light, versus harsh. Many of the fixtures that are "trending" incorporate exposed bulbs, which Ty and I both find hard on the eyes. We were very specific about what we wanted - here were our parameters while shopping for lighting :
  • Mid century modern elements to flow with original features of home, while remaining timeless and flexible (ie, not too MCM niche)
  • Reasonable price points 
  • No exposed bulbs
  • Brass, black, or white 

ENTRY

This fixture is my favorite. I wanted something interesting, but was limited due to the height of the room. Most fixtures hung too low. This fixture is fun and unique, without being too loud.

DINING

I had my heart set on a simplistic piece for the dining room. I actually bought several other fixtures, only to return them. This one spoke to me right away. I fell for the brass interior, and loved its simplicity.

HALLWAYS & GUEST BATH

We have three of these semi-flush fixtures in our home (laundry, guest bath, hallway). This MCM globe invites personality and texture, compared to a typical flush mount or can. The best part? This fixture is $53!

MASTER BATH

Believe it or not, these pendants were original to the home! (We live in a 1964 Mid Century tri-level). I spray painted the cord brass. Here, or here, is a similar fixture.

SUNROOM / MASTER BEDROOM FAN

I am a fan of this fixture (see what I did there?). It can be difficult to find a not-ugly fan at a good pricepoint. This white fan is a great price for the visual!
