I'm sure you've thought of this, but make sure that you measure exactly how low the light can hang in the foyer before it becomes a problem. I was going to get a hanging light but realized that when the door opens there wasn't enough clearance. I have to measure carefully before I buy a light for that area. As such, I've left the rather uninspiring original fixture there. I have a tiny house and front foyer, though.

When we got married in 1983 my Grandpa bought us a beautiful chandelier for our entry, which was 1 1/2 stories high. It was the ones that were popular at that time with the glass sides - ours has flowers etched in the glass - and it hung behind a beautiful high window and looked great from outside. Of course the new owners took it down and hung something more current, but I loved that beautiful light.I loved when I'd get home from work on a cold night , all tired out, and DH had that light on to greet me, and light the staircase.

At Christmas we would buy a huge wreath to hang around the outside of that octagon shaped window and put just a big red velvet bow on it . Light the chandelier behind it - and a spotlight on it from outside.
