Today’s dining rooms reflect consumer’s changing lifestyles. Once used solely for daily dining, this room has become multipurpose. During the week, we use the dining room as a work zone, for homework, crafts, and organizational meetings. On the weekends and special occasions, it becomes a gathering place for parties and meals. The result? Dining rooms must boast multiple lighting options that can go from functional to fashionable in the flip of a switch.

Smaller chandeliers aren’t just used in small powder rooms. People are treating their bedroom suites as more luxurious personal spaces with elaborate sitting areas and bathroom areas, so it is not unreasonable to consider mini chandeliers for the bedroom too. Mini chandeliers add a new sense of intimacy to small rooms and to corner spaces and alcoves of larger ones. These compact chandeliers are 9-12 inches in diameter to slip easily into tight spaces. For added impact, consider grouping them together or add multiple ones over a kitchen island. Mini chandeliers also work in more modest homes or rooms with 8 ft. ceilings.
