We all know where a chandelier looks good — in your living room, above the dining room table, and so on. But if you’re the kind of crafty person who craves a unique twist for your home, our team at The Light House Gallery has put together a list of eight unique places in your home for a chandelier. We offer a large selection of chandeliers and light fixtures with showrooms located in Springfield and Branson, Mo. Call us today with any of your lighting needs!
Below we’ve listed eight unique places to hang a chandelier in your home.
1. Above The Tub.
It’s the place you go to for complete and total relaxation, right? Why not add an elegant chandelier above your bathtub so you have something to admire whenever you enter the room?
This may seem unconventional, but chandeliers are a simple way to enhance the beauty in a room. And besides, think of how wonderful it would be to look up at your ceiling while soaking in a warm bubble bath to see a large, crystal chandelier. Ahhh. We’re relaxed just thinking about it.
2. In Your Office.
We get it: Work is work. It’s not always glamorous and it’s not always the place in your home that needs to be spruced up. After all, you’re the only one who goes in there, anyways.
But that’s exactly the reason you should hang a chandelier above your desktop. This will give your office space a modern, cosmopolitan look, and it’s another way to add your personal touch to a room. Look good, feel good… right?
3. Over Your Kitchen Island.
This is one of the more common places on this list, but it’s still one we think can fit any large kitchen beautifully. There’s just something about a large chandelier that shouts class and sophistication, which is why the kitchen is a perfect place for one.
The kitchen is a room that guests of your home will probably come in contact with often. Whether you’re hosting a birthday party celebration or summer barbecue, you’ll want to impress your guests with an extravagant chandelier or pendant above your kitchen island.
4. Above Your Bedroom’s Side Tables.
Instead of hanging one large chandelier above your bed, we suggest hanging two smaller chandeliers above the side tables in your bedroom. This is a simple way to accentuate a normally boring aspect of your room, and it’s the perfect solution for incorporating dimmer, gentler lighting in your room.
5. Over Your Staircase.
This is especially beautiful if you have a spiraling staircase or a staircase with a landing. A chandelier is the perfect way to not only add lighting to the area, but also a way to highlight the railings or natural colorings of your staircase.
6. Your Laundry Room.
Turn this not-so-elegant room into one that is stylish and chic by putting a chandelier over your washing machine and dryer. Think of how much time you spend doing laundry. A lot, right?
Spice up this dirty chore by adding a bold statement piece, or add a sense of calmness by choosing a delicate fixture. Either way, find one that matches your style and doing laundry will be a lot less mundane.
7. Your Child’s Room/Baby Nursery.
OK, we know this one might seem a little out-there, but adding a chandelier to your kid’s room is way more aesthetically pleasing than a normal, fluorescent light.
Chandeliers come in all shapes, sizes, materials and colors, and instead of opting for plain, boring lighting, these fixtures can add character to your child’s room or nursery. Some chandeliers come in specific styles, too, such as butterflies, birds, flowers and more.
8. Your Walk-In Closet.
Closets are dark, sad places that are jam-packed with clothes that still have tags on them joined by pants that don’t quite fit anymore. Give this room a makeover with something as simple as a chandelier.
A crystal or shaded chandelier is a great way to breathe life and light into your walk-in closet while also adding some personality. Whether your style is traditional, modern or contemporary, there’s bound to be a chandelier that perks your interest, and the experts at The Light House Gallery can help you find your perfect one!
