Hanging a pendant light either side of your bed is a clever and efficient way to provide task or mood lighting in your bedroom, however, in today’s homes, hanging pendant lights are as much a design statement as they are a practical solution and can be found in bedrooms of all sizes.
With shades available in so many different sizes, colors and finishes as well as the huge variety of colorful flex cords and bulbs to choose from, it is easy to see why hanging pendant lights are so popular.
No matter what style of bedroom you have, there is a hanging pendant to suit. For example, exposed bulb pendant lights look great in modern or industrial schemes, wire or cage light pendants convey a more vintage boho look, natural or woven pendants work well in rustic or relaxed beachy schemes and metal pendants can transition from country through to modern interiors.
