Throughout the journey of updating our home, I’ve come to realize how important lighting is. Hence the reason for DIY Pendant Lights. I think lighting can often be forgotten when updating a space. I’ve seen it over and over again, someone updates a plain jane room into a beautiful space but leaves the basic builder grade light fixtures. By just taking it one step further the room could be completely transformed and it doesn’t always have to cost a lot of money. At least in my opinion.
