Glam Kitchen with a Crystal Chandelier and Blush Stools

Putting a chandelier over a kitchen island is the quickest way to make an everyday room feel dressed up. Pick one roughly half to two thirds the length of the island so it looks generous without overwhelming the space, and hang it high enough to keep sightlines clear across the kitchen. Crystal and brass bounce light at night, which is when a glam kitchen shines. Blush velvet stools carry the color, and brass footrests tie them to the hardware. Keep the island styling light, a cake stand and one low bowl of peonies, so the fixture stays the star of the room.
