We’re excited to be bringing you a series of how-to’s — all surrounding how to properly hang your lighting! We get asked ALL of the time by clients on where and how to hang light fixtures in different spaces. Have you ever wondered where exactly to place the light fixture or how many fixtures you might need for a particular space?! There are several rules of thumb that you want to try to follow when hanging fixtures, as hanging them too high or too low can really make a difference in the space. Today, we are giving you all the tips for hanging light fixtures in your bathroom. We’ve also rounded up some of our favorite sconces to use in clients’ homes that make such a statement in any bathroom space 🤍
How to Hang Bathroom Lighting::
When picking out a light fixture for your bathroom, you will want to consider how big your space is and where you want to place sconces, as there are couple of different options. You could place a fixture above the mirror, using a double or triple sconce depending on your space. Another option would be to use single sconces on either side of the mirror for a more modern take.
Tip 1:: If you are using a sconce above a mirror, place the center of the light fixture about 75-80” from the floor.
Tip 2:: For larger vanities, consider using a triple sconce in order to add enough lighting to the space. For smaller vanities, opt for a single or double sconce above the mirror.
Tip 3:: For single sconces mounted on the sides of a mirror, the bottom of the fixture should be at/around eye level, or roughly 64-70” from the floor. This will keep the lighting at and around your face.
Always remember, these are just rules of thumb to consider and you can tweak these as needed for your particular and personal space! You might have to adjust some of these guidelines to best fit your space and needs.
