[For spacing, there should be 30 to 32 inches of space between an islands counter and the fixture’s lowest-hanging point, as in this kitchen featuring Hollis 4-Light Pendants. Multiply the square footage of the countertop area by 2.5 to determine how many watts of incandescent light you will need. Shown is a grouping of Wadsworth Semi Flushmounts.
The standard one-light pendant is a great deal, and these products come with several features that make them perfect for the kitchen. The Globe Electric Angelica Pendant has all the necessary hardware and is easy to install. Plus, it has an adjustable hanging rod that lets you customize the fixture to best fit your kitchen. If you have a compatible dimming switch, the pendant light can be used with dimmable LED lights.
If your kitchen has open shelves, add LED strip lights or puck lights to the back or underneath the shelves. This will create light to highlight objects on the shelves. When choosing your fixtures, think about the color of your kitchen. Since white reflects light, if you have a lot of white in your kitchen you may be able to lower the wattage of bulbs. But those with darker kitchen lighting may need more wattage.
