Hang a chandelier

Create a statement above a your dining table with a stunning, classic-look light fitting

Here's how to get the look:

  • A large, low-hung chandelier looks dramatic in the dining room

  • Give your scheme a modern twist by opting for smoked glass

  • Hang it above the centre of the table to add more impact, and tie it into the scheme with other coloured glass

  • Attach a hook to the ceiling so you can raise and lower the chandelier to create different lighting effects
