Living Room

A drum shade pendant light is ideally suited for tiny living rooms. Consider putting two pendants of the same sort, drum-shaped, above the seating area's center in expansive spaces.

Bathrooms

While placing a drum pendant light in a bathroom is less frequent than installing a bathroom chandelier, it is still a terrific option. Pendant drum lights perform best when hung above a bathtub, in the room's middle, or as a set above the vanity. View our portfolio of bathroom pendant lights for additional inspiration.

Finding the Perfect Drum Pendant Lights

Finding the appropriate drum pendant requires some background reading. Shade size is a major consideration for pendant lights because of the effect it has on the room's aesthetic. Installing a smaller drum pendant in a larger space may seem counterintuitive, yet the opposite can be true. Many drum pendants hung in a row look fantastic in long, narrow rooms like formal dining rooms and passageways. Consider the drum chandelier's shade diameter, chandelier height, and chandelier suspension length while shopping for a new drum pendant light fixture. When installing a drum light pendant over a kitchen or dining table, the height at which it hangs from the ceiling is a crucial consideration

Consider both the bulb's intended use and its actual output while making your selection. Look for pendants that hold lights that produce more subtle ambient lighting for dining rooms. A brighter LED pendant light is recommended if you intend to install it in a dark hallway or a room without windows.
