Wood Slab Light Fixture

Using live edge wood can add a new dimension to your home. Craftsman, modern, rustic, or transitional styles can all be accented with the natural contours of a literal tree slice.

These slabs can be used for coffee tables, sofa tables, headboards, or just accent pieces in your home.

Dark stain on the wood will help to pop against beige ceiling.

Unique Cord Wrap Chandelier

A Pinterest image started a client’s love affair with this light fixture. The home wasn’t conducive to the rustic feel of the Pinterest inspiration, but it was easy to modify for their space.

 

Spool Light Fixture

The same space as the wood wall needed an updated light fixture. I found a spool at the electrical supply shop by the dumpster.

The spool was just shy of 4 feet across, so this definitely fills the space and makes a statement. The lantern style could be changed since they are effectively pendant lights.
