Cottagecore is all about layered textures, so feel free to mix and match different design elements.

Tastefully combining metal, wood, textiles, and stone in your decor makes your space more interesting visually, and perfectly suits an eclectic cottage style.

It’s also a great opportunity to source renewable, natural materials. Paper, rattan, bamboo, burlap, and terracotta can all give you that down-to-earth, handmade feel.

Cottagecore hearkens back to preindustrial times, when life was simpler and everything was analog. Light fixtures in antique metal finishes like pewter or bronze will give you that heirloom look. Just add candlestick or Edison bulbs to complete the effect.

One very important kitchen lighting factor to consider is the type of bulb you choose. Different color temperatures will give entirely different effects—you'll want to use warm light for dining areas and chandeliers and cool light for your workspaces.

A warm white or soft white bulb (2700-4000 Kelvins) will give a slightly yellow glow that’s similar to an incandescent bulb and makes dining areas more cozy. Soft white bulbs also work well for ambient, overhead light fixtures.

A bright white or daylight bulb (4000-6500 Kelvins) gives off a blue-toned, cool light and maximizes color contrast. Daylight bulbs are perfect for any kind of work you do in the kitchen, from food prep to photography to studying.

A good kitchen renovation considers all the details.

Given all the time you spend in the kitchen, it should be a place that makes you feel comfortable and pampered.

Little touches of luxury, like statement lighting or gold finishes will give your kitchen that picture-perfect look. You’ll feel like you just stepped into a magazine photo or onto the set of a home cooking show.

You want to make your kitchen a room you’ll enjoy spending time in, so go ahead and add that wine fridge, marble countertop, or farmhouse sink. And don’t forget to include lighting that takes your kitchen from standard to luxe.

When you're planning a kitchen renovation, remember to place light fixtures at different heights. Layering your lighting will make your kitchen even more comfortable and efficient.

Combine recessed lighting with pendant lights so that you have ambient overhead lighting as well as direct lighting for islands and countertops. Use undercabinet lighting to illuminate your workspace or to light up the floor at night and give your lower cabinets a "lift."

You can find all the best lighting at Walters! We also carry a huge selection of can lights, undercabinet lights, pendants, and chandeliers to make all your kitchen dreams come true. Visit our virtual showroom to start browsing today.

If you're designing an eat-in kitchen or working with an open floor plan, you can mark out a specific area for dining by using a light fixture.

Decide where your table will be positioned, and then choose a pendant or chandelier to hang over the table. This simple design element will make your dining experience more comfortable, and make your space feel more intentional.
