Commercial Spaces Betty L 1 Comment on Galvanized Warehouse Pendants Lend Industrial Style to Commercial Lighting

barn_light_warehouse_pendants_wire_guard_restaurant_lighting.jpgOn a recent visit to the funky coastal town of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, we stopped in for a fried grouper sandwich at Creek Ratz, a very laid-back restaurant with awesome views of the inlet and all its wildlife. You can read about the treasure of gooseneck lights we found on the back patio in last week’s blog, but today we venture inside where the ambiance takes a definite industrial turn with the galvanized warehouse pendants over the bar.

Featured Customer | Porcelain Pendants Lend Gracious Style to Kitchen Remodel

Kitchens, Residential Inspiration Betty Leave a Comment on Featured Customer | Porcelain Pendants Lend Gracious Style to Kitchen Remodel

When Hélène of Pointe-Claire, Quebec began remodeling her kitchen, she wanted the various new elements, fixtures, and pendant lighting to respect the history of her centennial home.

“I wanted all of the new features to be in unity with the rest of the house,” Hélène says. “It is quite old. When I dig deep enough in the garden, I find horseshoes!” Hélène was striving for a country chic look but also the unpretentious, warm feel of a French farm. Hélène chose Barn Light Electric’s 12″ Ivanhoe® Sinclair Porcelain Pendant in a Graphite finish with a white canopy and polished nickel socket with a knob switch. Based on original 1930s designs, the Sinclair Pendant follows a simple industrial style with timeless appeal. Like all of our porcelain enamel lights, the Sinclair is American made with a baked-on porcelain enamel finish meant for years of use. Hélène also chose the black cotton twist cord for her new pendants for even more vintage flair.

Now, in addition to the rustic sconces on the exterior of their building, Okie Dokies has some bright and shiny barn pendant lights highlighting their remodeled dining area.

How-To Betty L Leave a Comment on Vintage Glass Shade Pendants Exude Timeless Style

vintage_glass_shade_pendant.jpgThe first person to place a glass shade around a bare bulb changed the course of lighting history. While bare bulbs were certainly an improvement over an open flame, the addition of a glass shade helped throw the light further reflecting it up, down, and all around to help light up a space. Our collection of Glass Shade Pendants on Vintage Barn Lighting features some beautiful examples of antique glass shades that can add the perfect touch of timeless style to almost any room.
