Our Favourite Picture Lights

Picture Lights are a brilliant way to highlight artwork and layer more lighting into your space. I’ve rounded up all of our favourite picture lights in case you find yourself on the hunt for a new picture light.

One of my favourite things about this new/old house of ours is all of the lighting layered throughout each room, particularly all of the wall sconces scattered throughout. There are wall sconces down both staircases, through our hallways, our primary bedroom, every single bathroom, and even surrounding the entire basement – there’s definitely no shortage of wall sconces around here.

Wall sconces are by far my favourite type of lighting – they instantly bring so much charm + character into a room and even more, they are a beautiful way to add a new layer of lighting into any space.

I’ve been window shopping new wall sconces for our staircases and upstairs hallway for months now (you can find all of my favourites here), but I had a different idea for this one little wall sconce in our front entryway. Rather than replacing it with a sconce to match the stairway lighting on the opposite side of the room, I thought I might introduce a little picture light over this little cabinet instead.

And so, while searching for the perfect wall sconces to use on our staircases, I’ve also been looking for a beautiful picture light that I can use on the other side of our entryway too. I love the idea of mixing + matching different lighting and finishes throughout a space – it really adds to that collected, cozy feel that we’re looking to bring into this new/old home of ours. I’d love to get our stairway sconces ordered up, but it’s been hard to commit to something without knowing which picture light I want to co-ordinate them with. So today, I thought I’d round up some of my favourite picture light options with the hopes that it will help me finally decide on all of this lighting throughout our entryway.
