Where to Buy Affordable French Farmhouse Lighting

In this post: Lighting can make a huge difference to the character of a room. If you’re looking for affordable French farmhouse lighting, check out this complete guide.⇒

One of the fastest ways to make an impression in a room is by adding a fabulous chandelier!

Just picture one of your rooms that you’d love to update and imagine how different it would look by adding wonderful lighting. Not only would it change the ambiance of the room but the piece itself can make quite a bold statement. This is particularly so with large chandeliers, but even lamps and wall sconces can have a similar impact.

I often walk around my home and think exactly this. Despite the fact that I have recessed overhead lighting in most of my rooms (and enjoy that kind of lighting from a functional standpoint), I prefer each of my rooms to have some kind of light fixtures with French farmhouse style. The fixtures themselves can be intrinsically beautiful and the character they add to a room can make all the difference.

But lighting, as we know, can cost a fortune. I’ve put together this shopping guide to share with you some of my favorite resources for affordable and stylish French farmhouse lighting. I’ve broken it down into 4 categories, including chandeliers, sconces, lamps and pendant lights. We all have our own idea of what constitutes affordable, so I’ve tried to keep most of the items under $500, with plenty of options under $300, as well. There may be one or two special pieces in each category that are a bit higher, but the majority are in the lower range.

Affordable French farmhouse lighting, lamps, chandeliers, sconces

French Farmhouse Chandelier Lighting

If you really want to add a WOW factor to any room, you can’t beat the impact of a gorgeous chandelier. Sure they can be pricey, but if you know where to look, you can find something beautiful that’s not crazy expensive. Here are some of my favorite options.

French Farmhouse Wall Sconces

I’ve always been a huge fan of sconces for both the mood lighting they offer, as well as their decorative benefit. They are like the jewelry in a room and look awesome flanking a mirror, a painting, or a cluster of varied wall hangings. In the right spot, they can even work alone, so don’t think you always need a pair.

French Farmhouse Lamps

Lamps can be the quintessential accessory in a space and are sometimes all you need on an end table or desk. In pairs on a console table they can offer symmetry and atmosphere, but they’re also great for certain tasks around the home.

French Farmhouse Pendant Lights

Over an island or counter or in fact anywhere you want a focal point, pendant lights look great in a group while they shed light on the area of focus. Use them over a bar or even over a kitchen table. 

 
I hope you find something that works for you here, or maybe simply find inspiration for lighting you already own. I sometimes move my fixtures around until I find just the right place for each specific room and piece.

    Lori, this is a great post! Speaking of lighting…I have track lights over my galley kitchen and I’m really tired of them. They are a good light source and aren’t really conspicuous but all the same, I would like to replace them. Do you know of a good source for more updated and Frenchy style track lights or should I just consider replacing them all together? I have an open floor plan so the lights over the bar are hanging close to the track lights. I value your ideas so much and hope you have some suggestions. XOXO

      If you can, I would probably replace altogether. It’s a good opportunity to get something that fits better with your style.

Instagram post 2198211300106347019_231271655 Last year at this time I started offering printables on the blog and this one was from my very first group - a trio of holiday wreaths. I’ve since expanded my printable library by a quite a bit and it’s become one of my favorite things to do. The entire library is accessible to all subscribers at no cost, but every few months I offer new downloads to anyone who wants them.
Instagram post 2196671438893694755_231271655 One thing I love to do when doing a holiday or winter table is to mix warmth with cool.  So while my pinecones are channeling the snowy outdoors (which we already have!), the candlelight is saying it’s warm inside. How about you?  Are you the outdoors type when it’s cold outside or are you sitting by the fire for the next few months?
Instagram post 2195312059054166851_231271655 I’m pretty much ok with anything as long as it has a touch of pink and a touch of gold. So you can imagine how much I love baubles in pink gold! They look great on a white tree, a flocked tree, a bronze tree and of course on natural greens. It may be the warmth that I love so much, but its also the rosy glow. What’s your palette this year?
Instagram post 2194570202632900972_231271655 A few years ago I saw my first winter peonies and it completely rocked my world! That these heartbreakingly beautiful flowers were only available for a few weeks in May seemed like such a cruel joke, but of course now we have them at holiday time too! 🙌

Instagram post 2193138002285287076_231271655 I’ve been looking for a little peace and tranquility in my life, and at this crazy time of year, I find adding some simple romantic decor to my home gives me that sense of calm that I'm craving. All it takes is some fresh greens, pretty blooms and some scattered baubles and I’m all set.
Instagram post 2191507211539309998_231271655 Before there was pink, my favorite tree was the white tree, and I think this may still be my fave! I’ve fallen so in love with winter peonies and they work so well with my pale tree and blush pink baubles. Throw in a bit of gold and you’re good to go!⁣
