Browse Forums Lighting + Lighting Design 1 Nov 16, 2008 8:26 am We spent a couple of hours choosing the fans and lights for our house yesterday.. I would really like to hear of any comments or experiences with them... good or bad...
We are having fans with lights attached (lights will be 3 spotlight type lights attached to the bottom for all bedrooms, lounge, dining/family, and alfresco).. Pics are on my blog as I am still not sure how to post them here.. -Sha edit: if you dont see all of the pics (there should be 5) you may need to click on it to open it further.. Re: Our lighting and fan choices... 2Nov 16, 2008 2:43 pm Nice lights!
If you want a decent looking ceiling fan with a nice light that's not a halogen (those 3 bulb halogens that go on fans chew energy like there is no tomorrow!) - try the Futura fan from Beacon Lighting with a CFL bulb - I think about $250. They aren't on the website yet - just new into stores in the last few weeks. After 4 years - we're in! Re: Our lighting and fan choices... 3Nov 16, 2008 2:45 pm Hey...nice selection with your lights. My mum was looking for a fan with lights for the alfresco as it has no lights but one chinaman hat globe

I checked out your blog, and i think you have chosen some really nice fittings. You should be able to achieve some good minor effects using these choices. Happy to help!
