When using pendants as task lighting, hang them 28 to 34 inches above work surfaces and space them about two feet apart to provide even illumination. A minimum of 84 inches (7 feet) is the optimal pendant light height from the floor to the bottom of the fixture, so use that guiding rule for hanging pendants in open areas or walkways.<\/p>\n Pictured: Ashlyn 7.5-Inch Pendant in Polished Nickel by Capital Lighting<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Mini Pendant Placement Ideas<\/strong><\/p>\n Because they\u2019re fairly small, mini pendants can be used in a variety of locations.
