We've all seen them. They're common in house flips or new builds, where contractors just need a flush mount light and grab the most affordable option. But just because they're ubiquitous does not mean they are acceptable!
Nothing screams "I don't care about aesthetics!" more than a boob light. Luckily, if you are cursed with one (or more) of these eyesores, there are many affordable and easy-to-find alternatives on the market. Here are a few of my favorites.

$30 at Ikea
Don't discount Ikea for great lighting. They offer options from Boho to MidCentury. If you want something a bit more formal, this brass and glass fixture also creates shadows for extra drama.
There's a reason light fixtures are called "the jewelry of the home." They are one small but important way to add your own personality to your space. If you need help finding the light that's right for you, I'd be happy to help!
