Flush Mount Ceiling Lights – My 10 Favorites!

In this post: I’m sharing my ten favorite flush mount ceiling lights including some amazingly inexpensive finds! 

There are tons of gorgeous lighting options out there but if you’ve got a house full of low ceilings like mine (most of mine are 7 1/2 feet – gotta love older homes!), your lighting choices quickly get narrowed WAY down. And you and I both know that most flush mount lights are pretty heinous. There are some beautiful flush mount lights to be found but it definitely requires some serious searching. Luckily I’ve taken on that task for all of us and today I’m sharing my ten favorite flush mount ceiling lights from all different price points. Whether you need an inexpensive light for a room remodel on the cheap or have a space where you want to splurge on something high-end, I think you’ll find one that you love! (post includes some affiliate links – full disclosure statement available {here})

Let’s kick things off by sharing the three flush mount lights I have in my own home, starting with our home office. When we moved into our house, this space had a simple builder’s grade dome light that wasn’t just ugly but also a huge pain when it came time to change the light bulbs. The room has a lot of brass accents so I stuck with that finish and went with {this} gold semi flush mount light. I love it and think it looks much more expensive than it is. And as another plus, it takes 3 light bulbs at up to 100 Watts each so it’s great overhead lighting to have in a room with no other light sources:

{This fixture} in our home’s entryway was one of the first ones that I bought for our house because the previous owners took theirs with them when they moved out. I fell in love with this quatrefoil beauty and while I really tried to ignore my lighting lust and find something less expensive, I ended up splurging on it. It’s the most I’ve ever spent on a lighting fixture but it’s your very first impression as you walk in our home and a fixture that’s seen not only in the entryway but also from the dining room and living room. I love it and will probably follow in the footsteps of our home’s previous owners and take this baby with me when it’s time to move on!

My most recent flush mount lighting addition is in our master bedroom where I added {this scalloped gal}. As much as I would have loved to have had statement lighting like a fabulous chandelier, the 7 1/2 foot ceilings in our room wouldn’t allow it so I went on the hunt for something that had some personality but still fit with the style of my room and was so happy to find this one! 

Now on to my list of favorites! I’ve sorted them into three price ranges so you’ll know what you’d be getting into moneywise (and hopefully unlike me, you can keep yourself from getting suckered into that quatrefoil beauty!).  We’ll start with some beautiful, inexpensive flush mount lighting options and work our way up from there!

Inexpensive, Affordable Flush Mount Ceiling Lights (Under $100)

My biggest tip in choosing a flush mount light when you don’t have a lot of money to spend is to go with a clean, simple design. Anything with an elaborate design that’s under $100 is going to look cheap but simple, inexpensive fixtures can be beautiful. Something simple like this no-frills flush mount light {found here} is a great choice – it’s inexpensive but streamlined and chic and has lots of great reviews. I used it in our guest bathroom that you can check out {here} and love it! And it’s available in four different finishes including warm brass, satin nickel, polished nickel, and bronze:

A simple, classic fabric drum shade is another great option like {these} fabric shade flush mounts (I especially love the white linen!):

and these simple bell shaped flush mount lights found {here} are perfect for more transitional or contemporary homes! 

Moderately Priced Flush Mount Ceiling Lights ($125 – $350)

Moving on to moderately priced flush mounts lighting, two that I already shared top my list including {this semi flush mount light} that comes in both gold and brushed nickel:

and {this} scalloped fabric flush mount from our master bedroom:

Rounding out my favorite moderately priced flush mount lights is {this gorgeous one} – I LOVE it and think it might just have to find its way into our home! The way that you see an inner gold ring when you’re looking up from beneath it is fabulous!

High End Flush Mount Ceiling Lights ($450+)

I could have included about 50 lights in this last category – there are some super gorgeous lights out there if you’ve got the money to spend! The first on my list is {this light} in my entryway (also available {here}) that I shared earlier – it was definitely less expensive when I bought it years ago than it is now, but still not cheap! If you’re like me and have an area that can be seen from multiple rooms in your home and could really use a statement fixture, splurging on a single light might be worth it:

For years I’ve loved {this gorgeous cloverleaf flush mount} – both the design and the finishes are fabulous! I don’t think you could go wrong with it in any space but it sure is pricey!

And if you’re someone who loves the look of a beautiful beaded chandelier but you don’t have the ceiling height for it, {this flush beaded flush mount} is a great alternative if you’ve got the $$$ to spend!

That wraps up my top ten! Do you guys have any favorites on the list or ones that I didn’t mention? I’m always on the hunt for great fixtures so would love to hear about them in the comments!
