Hello, everyone! It's Mari here from Arcadian Home blog, an inspiring place to find lots of decorating ideas including ways to add pretty table decor, colorful wall art and lovely lighting fixtures to interior spaces. I'm so excited to be visiting BDG Style with a guest post about one of my favorite light fixtures--pendants. Do you love pendant lights too? Today, I've brought along eight images to inspire your interior lighting projects. From clear glass to black metal, you'll surely want to incorporate at least one, or perhaps a grouping, of these irresistible beauties into your design plans. Oh, the possibilities. Please enjoy!

A neutral living room is beautiful with subtle touches of global style. Fluted pendant lights like the one shown here are a lovely alternative to the traditional drum pendant with its sleek lines.

This contemporary eat-in kitchen is touched with gold inside oversized black metal pendant lights. It's a wonderful space for family meals with plenty of room for entertaining.

Considering one glass pendant light for a master bedroom? Perhaps ten would be better. This pretty bedroom with a dramatic ocean view boasts a lovely cluster of pendants in an array of sizes and decorative glass patterns.

Metal and glass lanterns are often seen in entrance halls. Here, the designer has used a large contemporary version of that style to great effect. The light presents a lovely contrast to the traditional architecture of the space.

As seen here in a warm and inviting contemporary kitchen, glass pendants are a great lighting choice for over the breakfast bar. I love the comfortable seating area included in the design and the decision to take those beautiful glass tiles beyond the backsplash all the way to the ceiling.

In a bold lighting move, six matte black pendants are hung high above this stunning contemporary living room. These metal lights with their interesting shapes and golden linings are currently at the top of my wish list. Can't decide on just one shape? That problem is easily solved--choose one of each.

The lining inside the drum pendant light adds a bit of interesting pattern to this chic living room with mostly solid colors.

A Moravian star pendant light is a perfect choice for this sedate feminine bath. The pale textured wallcovering is quite lovely here.
