New Pendant Lighting over the Kitchen Island…
While in Spokane a couple weeks ago, I stopped in at “Pink” to look around and found these incredible pendant lights that just were salvaged from the Otis Hotel that is about to be renovated. Currently I had a pair of longer pendant lights that I chose when we built our home in 2006. The ones I have are fine, but you know it’s always fun to change things up!
So I brought them home and had them installed! I’ll have to admit that it took a few days for me to get used to ~ as I wasn’t sure if they went with the ‘look’ I try to create in my home. Then again, I have to remind myself that if I chose them and loved them enough to purchase, they must be my style, right? They are much shorter, and friends won’t be bumping their heads now when leaning over the center island butcher block.
The style of these lamps is a little on the ‘industrial’ side of decorating flair, so I chose to grab these cool light bulbs to warm the new space up.
I also added a fun rustic galvanized holder of some kind – not sure what its original intended use was for, but its now on my counter top holding granny smith apples!
So here it is, all together in one photo! thoughts…?
Thanks for coming by to take a peek at the newest changes here at Fishtail Cottage! Hope you are having a wonderful week!

I wonder what it is that is making galvanized pieces look so good to us right now. I am aggravated at myself because we threw a large galvanized wash tub out a few years ago. I distinctly remember saying to my husband, "Go ahead and pitch it. I don't know what I would ever use it for." It would have been a perfect planter. Just the type you see looking beautiful in decorating magazines and on the blogs.
