Creating the right light in the bathroom can be a tad tricky. Ample task lighting for personal grooming is important, of course, but so is a comfortable level of brightness and a little bit of ambiance. The challenge is elevated by the small space to work with. Here are a few examples of how the right fixtures in the right place can help you achieve the right balance of illumination and style in a powder room.

Wall-mounted sconces on both sides of the mirror will provide plenty of task lighting as well as decor to break up solid colored bathroom walls. 

Narrow, low-hanging ceiling pendants can extenuate the height of the bathroom creating vertical interest while still offering close-up lighting.  

If task lighting is covered by other fixtures or lots of natural light, then look for a small, decorative chandelier that will add style and ambient lighting. 

Arkansas homeowners can find hundreds of sconces, pendants and chandeliers in every imaginable style at the Light Innovations showroom at 8316 West Markham in Little Rock, Arkansas.
