School is out, time to shop! If you’re a business owner, it’s time to consider your store or restaurant’s presentation. Will your shop window draw a crowd, or do guests simply walk on by?
This Style Me Sunday we’re offering some tips that will add curb appeal that is sure to attract consumers. From spot lighting to product display, we want to help you spruce up that space to create an eye-catching window showcase!
Style Me Sunday: Light Up Your Tree
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas here at Barn Light Electric. From the vintage green Ivanhoe™ Bomber Porcelain Pendant Lights to the cherry red Dino Studio Light—our holiday season will certainly be merry and bright!
This Style Me Sunday we’re showing of our favorite Porcelain lighting fixtures, accessories, and industrial home utilities in their jolliest of finishes. If you’re looking for hues that are holiday appropriate, but look fresh year round—our hand applied porcelain enamel green and red finishes can handle the job! For little pops of color, try our unique cloth cord pendants like the Barn Light Indy Industrial Pendant with a red twist cord or our classic Ball Jar Pendant with the chevron cord.

Luckily for most of us, creating an inviting front entryway doesn’t involve rocket science. If you’ve got the bones of your structure in place, all you need are some additional touches that give your home genuine curb appeal and will enhance its value for years to come. Start off by simply keeping the area around your front door uncluttered so visitors don’t have to step over a pile of shoes just to get in. Add some potted plants or seasonal flowers in different sized containers and at different heights to add visual interest.

Before you bedeck your porch with pumpkins, scarecrows and spooky cobwebs make sure your curb appeal is up to par! FengShui Design Corp shows us how to style exteriors with clean lines and classic American details like wood side paneling and white trim. With a paint palette featuring vibrant blue, buttery yellow and soft white, your home will look fresh year round! Accessorizing with lighting is essential to show off your beautiful home—and the Trick-Or-Treaters will thank you as well! Highlight your stylishly paved lawn with a porcelain post-mount light. This Bomber Single Post Mount Exterior Light’s yellow finish makes a lovely complement to the door! And don’t forget that pendant lighting, like the Cape Hatteras Pendant, is an excellent way to highlight your industrial House Numbers.
Rustic metal baskets like the Round Vintage Utilitarian Wire Basket are a great way to combine function and style on your front porch. If you wanted to incorporate a little bit of the season in this space, white pumpkins would look lovely clustered along the stairway!

Fall for Vintage Starting Tomorrow with Our Vintage Barn Lighting Sale!
If you haven’t noticed the nip in the air, the red-tipped leaves, or the refreshing absence of humidity, check your calendar. The official start of fall is upon us this weekend, and it’s time to relish the season of harvest with all its splendor and comfort. Thinking ahead to the holidays
and the myriad family and friends who will land in your living room, isn’t it time to do a little updating? Maybe some shiny new house numbers out front so Cousin Fred won’t circle the block three times looking for your address. Changing up your lighting is also a great way to give a space a whole new look. And now is the perfect time to shop as our Fall for Vintage Sale starts tomorrow! Switch out that builder basic light with a vintage fixture that’s loaded with history, character, and the unique charm that only antique lights possess.
This room has a very rustic feel with the herringbone patterned brick flooring and textured fabrics, not to mention the stack of firewood against the wall. The delicate, arching light fixture is much like the Milk Glass Shades you’ll find on Vintage Barn Lighting. The Flared Milk Glass Shade with a Cotton Twist Cord offers a 9″ wide shade in a compact fixture. In Unfinished Brass or Polished Nickel, this light will be a conversation starter as it illuminates your sumptuous Thanksgiving hors d’oeuvres on the kitchen island.
Or for a real head turner, hang this Vintage Blue Airport Taxi Runway Light in the guest bath, a hallway, or in the game room. Be sure to check out all the offerings in our Vintage Barn Lighting collection including Vintage Brass Lighting, Wall Sconces, and authentic reproduction Edison Style Light Bulbs that will give a vintage boost to any fixture.
Our special Fall for Vintage pricing includes 10% off all vintage fixtures plus free shipping and handling. There are exclusions so be sure to check out the details. Just enter the code FALL4VINTAGE12 at checkout to receive your savings!
