I’m obsessed right now…over schoolhouse lights.
I recently purchased Pottery Barn’s Graham chandelier for over our kitchen table with six burlap shades. Although, I like it, with its nice oil rubbed bronze finish and classic chandelier lines, I’m thinking I missed an opportunity.
So, I think the chandelier is coming down, and will be swapped for something like this…
It’s the Rose City with the 16 inch classic schoolhouse shade from Rejuvenation.

or this…
Restoration Hardware’s 15 inch Schoolhouse Pendant. (source)
Or Schoolhouse Electric’s Rhode’s 6”
So, I’m asking you all for some advice! I really need your help on this one.
What shall it be? What shall we have hang above our kitchen table?
Option 1:
Graham Chandelier with Burlap Shades (not the shades shown):
Option 2:
A schoolhouse light with a 15 to 16 inch diameter glass shade:
Go right over there to the right, and vote!
Thanks for your help!
Be Well,
We just put the same light in our kitchen over our table. We love it! Such a nice look. We got ours on clearance at Home Depot for under $20, what a bargain!!
ReplyDeleteIt all depends on what YOUR dining table looks like. These two lights have completely different looks. I personally like the chandelier much better. But then again, depends on the rest of the room.
ReplyDeleteAnn Marie said my thoughts exactly!
ReplyDeleteLove the chandelier!
ReplyDeleteI am on a HUGE schoolhouse light kick as well! Loving them. I even put on in my hallway last week. http://www.storefrontlife.com/hallway-schoolhouse-light/
ReplyDeleteLove both, again two different looks. You might also want to consider how much it lights the space and your table.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I would pick the chandelier. It looks really nice alone, but also looks like it has areas that can be used to hold decorations for various holidays or celebrations.
ReplyDeleteAnother vote for the chandelier.
ReplyDeleteI vote for the schoolhouse pendant!!! An updated look with old charm! I am renovating my kitchen, and I am definitely planning to hang schoolhouse pendants above the island... Have fun!
ReplyDeleteLove the chandelier and am getting it for our new kitchen, which is simple and needs this chandelier for some pop. The schoolhouse lights really fit the decor in the above photos, so it probably just depends on the kitchen.
