Dining Area Pendant Lamp

Even if you don't have a formal dining space, it's important to differentiate where your eating space is; a chandelier or other hanging lamp is a great way to do this. I love the idea of a small pendant lamp in the eat-in breakfast area of our new townhouse--it will provide some much needed light while also updating the kitchen. 


Since our dining table only has seating for four, I don't want to overwhelm this fairly small space. The bar height dark cherry table and chairs, while small, are contemporary with very clean lines; the pendant we eventually will hang above it should complement the furniture rather than compete with it.
