I always say I’d spend my last dollar on a light fixture, and I would, because if you’re looking for impact, lighting always does the trick. But why settle for one…These dining rooms have more than the one great predictable fixture over the table. I love this look. The problem is finding multiples, especially if vintage is your preference, and even if you do, they will cost a pretty penny. That’s what lottery tickets are for…
