So next time you decide to install a chandelier, don’t forget to top it off with a fantastic ceiling medallion! And incase you are wondering which size is appropriate for your chandelier…the rule of thumb is that you use a medallion that is larger or smaller in diamater than the chandelier itself. This adds a sense of drama. For example, if your chandelier is 30″ in diameter, go with either a 22″ ceiling medallion or a 36″ ceiling medallion. Either way, the medallion is the perfect finishing touch!
