Living Rooms, Residential Inspiration Betty L Leave a Comment on Featured Customer | Barn Pendants, Industrial Ceiling Fan for Farmhouse

This cozy and comfortable farmhouse, located in northwest Washington near the U.S. border with Canada, has plenty of color and texture to provide visual interest and create an inviting atmosphere. From the warm wood beams to the stone surround on the fireplace, this home has plenty of rustic charm. To complement the rustic decor, Robert, our featured homeowner, chose two cord hung barn pendants for over the kitchen sink. These Sydney Cord Hung Pendants lend an industrial look to Robert’s space and have a unique uplight feature that lets light escape over the top of the shade thanks to the cast guard and glass design.This American made pendant comes in four shade sizes and more than a dozen powder coat finish colors that offer a rainbow of choices. Robert chose a Galvanized finish for his 14″ shades that also feature a matching Galvanized guard and clear glass. You may wish to choose a contrasting color for the guard and either frosted or ribbed glass. To top off this rugged fixture, customize it with a standard cord or a cotton cord for even more color.

Industrial chic decor translates the heavy duty, rustic, and ergonomical objects found in factories into functional and stylish pieces for every room in the house. Start with a neutral foundation, like this Almsted rug from IKEA then add fun embellishments. Metal baskets like the perforated metal baskets, and wire baskets are practical means of storage without sacrificing design. Two industrial essentials are the Bordeaux Tin Wall Clock and the Wilcox Studio Light. These accessories look like they are fresh from the factory floor! And don’t forget to juxtapose your hard, cold, materials with soft, colorful, textiles through your furniture selection like this sofa and pillows.
