Modern Bedroom Pendant Lighting

Why We Love Bedroom Pendant Lighting

Pendant lighting in the bedroom is an ideal option when you have high ceilings that are not already being occupied by a ceiling fan, chandelier or flushmount light. These bedroom hanging lights span a wide variety of decorative styles too, from mid-century pendants and minimalist exposed bulb fixtures to Scandinavian classics that any bedroom or design aficionado is sure to love. With a well-chosen pendant light, you'll bring out the personality of your bedroom.

Pendant lighting adds distinctive decorative character that makes a statement while also providing exceptional downlighting for the room. Unlike the strictly functional style of lighting provided by recessed fixtures or flush mount ceiling lights, this assortment of hanging lamps aim to transform the bedroom from a casual space to one that is contemporary and luxurious. Here you will find pendant lights to accommodate any room size, ranging from mini pendants and multi-light pendants to large, elegant designs that are truly awe-inspiring. Plus, you'll find a variety of styles to fit in just about any bedroom.

Bedroom Pendant Lighting Ideas for Every Style

These pendant light fixtures are designed to fit into a multitude of bedroom styles, ranging from rooms in traditionally styled homes to those boasting with elements of modern decor.

Finally, to promote energy efficiency in the bedroom, be sure to see the number of LED pendants available.

How to Choose the Best Bedroom Pendants

Choosing pendant lighting for any space in your home requires a thorough understanding of a light fixture's size. You will need to measure the area of the ceiling where you plan to hang your pendant and then review important sizing dimensions like height, width, weight and hanging length to find the best choices for your room. And with a size in mind, you can then refine your options by colors, finishes, materials and other important design features. Check out the pendant's lumen output to gauge how bright it will be and be sure to see its required bulb to be prepared with the right light bulbs when it is installed.

Other Considerations

For something that may sparkle even more than a pendant, check out the assortment of modern chandeliers. As a choice of lighting that is often found in the formal dining room, adding a chandelier to the bedroom helps to create a unique atmosphere. Or, if you don't quite have the ceiling to floor height to accommodate a hanging fixture, you'll appreciate a flushmount light or set of can light fixtures. Lastly, set the mood of your bedroom by placing your pendant lights on a dimmer switch. Dimmer controls are easy to install and most pendants are capable of being dimmed.
