Shopping for Hallway Light Fixtures

I mentioned yesterday that while hubs sanded the stairs, I went shopping for light fixtures for our hallway. Just in case you were wondering, here is what we had before:

Sexy, right?

So I made the trek to the Design District (which is in a TERRIBLE location in my opinion) to hit up my (usual) favourite light shops, Union Lighting and Sescolite.

Here is what I found:

Pendants are tricky for us because of the ceiling height upstairs. If the pendant used a metal pole to hang down, we were generally out of luck. We only had about 10 inches MAX to work with, and most small pendants would be about 7-8" PLUS the metal pole (minimum 6" hang). So they wouldn't work.

I considered a flush or a semi flushmount fixture but most of them were either a) HIDEOUS or b) too expensive to buy 3 of them.

Hmm....

I then realized that some pendants used a wire or a cord to hang from - which meant I could totally adjust it to the room we had! Sweet!

So I picked one. Bought three. Hoped for the best.

Can you guess what one?
