If you know me at all, you know that I have two favorite things to shop for when designing spaces for both myself and my clients: lighting and wallpaper. I could easily spend any given day going down a rabbit hole looking at countless light fixtures and wallpaper options and loving every second of it.
These two design elements are unique because they are relatively inexpensive (when compared to other improvements) but they can have HUGE impact on the look at feel of a space.
So here I've decided to do a roundup of some of my favorite, FUN lighting at all price points to give you a burst of inspiration for your space.
PRICE: HIGHER
Stray Dog Designs creates some of the most unique light fixtures I've ever seen, using paper maché, iron, and fun colors, and are handmade to order in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. All the fixtures come in multiple colors, or you can order a custom color to fit your space for an additional fee.
When I was building my last house, my designer friend suggested the Landon Chandelier (above), and it easily became my favorite fixture in that house. The price is higher for sure, but in my opinion, it was totally worth it for a unique, handmade piece like this one, and since my other light fixtures were less expensive, this was my one splurge.
Here are a few more of my Stray Dog favorites:
Sazerac Stitches is a New Orleans based company that has a huge variety of colorful fixtures, most of which are customizable by color, finish, and size.
PRICE: LOWER/MIDDLE
Here are a few more favorites from other retailers, at what I think is a more manageable price point:
LOOKING FOR FUN LIGHTING, BUT NOT A FAN OF COLORS?
Ok, ok... but I challenge you to use color somewhere unexpectedly in your home, even if it's not in your light fixtures :)
This is one of my favorite Etsy shops, especially if you are looking for something more "vintage-y" looking, which I just happen to be for my new house. You can see the fixture I favorited, but these are all so unique (and the prices are amazing, ALL with free shipping!).
I LOVE this Etsy shop. These are Moroccan lighting fixtures, and they cast the most beautiful patterns onto the ceiling:
