Light Fixtures: Practical or Pretty?

I gave you guys a peek of the fan in Babygirl’s Room yesterday. I have despised that fixture with a red-hot-passion since we moved in 5 years ago, but any of you that live in the South know that while a ceiling fan may not be pretty, it’s fairly necessary!

The tan blades against the white ceiling were especially painful, but now that the ceiling is painted a similar color, I’m not minding it as much.

Sure I’d love to add a more modern decor light, like these found by uber-online-resource CSN:

A new light fixture isn’t really in the budget, and removing the fan isn’t really practical for my little head-sweater…but I’ve got an idea to mask the homely of the big bulb. Fingers crossed.

What’s the rule in your house when it comes to fans and lighting….practical or pretty?
