Today I’m sharing ideas for a boob light replacement. You know which lights I’m talking about. Once you see the boob, you can never unsee it! These cheap, builder-basic lights are easy to swap and make a big statement in your home. Even small lights can be stunning. Check out these ideas for a boob light replacement below.
When I shared these on my instagram, a friend said “You’re out here doing the Lord’s work.” It cracked me up.
These lights are from a design project I put together for an eat-in kitchen area. We needed something low profile, but still beautiful to go with the elevated look we wanted. Lots of natural textures, golds, and blacks.
Semi-flush mount lights are designed to hang lower than the ceiling, whereas flush-mount lights sit right up against the ceiling. I included a mix of both here depending on where you need it.
Tips For Choosing The Right Fixture
For light fixtures, think about what finishes you like best and already have in your home. Brass/gold tend to warm up a space. Fabric shades can add a bit of warm texture, while also providing a netural color if there’s already lots of color in the room.
If you want the light to blend in the background more, consider a clear glass light. Milk glass or shaded lights are better for diffused lighting – it won’t be shining directly into your face. It feels a little softer!
Small lights are best for small spaces – like hallways, closets, or rooms with low ceilings. Save the statement lights for places like your dining room, living room, and kitchen.
