Tell us a bit about yourself!
Hi! My name is Haley and I am a LEO wife, mom of two precious boys (Beckham and Jack), and I’m a full time home health occupational therapist. Family is my absolute joy in life. We just moved into a new home for us, built in 1995. We have been slowly renovating each space and making this house a home. Our style is definitely modern farmhouse with a simplistic look. Our hill is referred to as “Hallelujah Hill” because a church used to sit here. We have a “Hallelujah Hill” plaque on the outside of our home as somewhat of a historic symbol left from the original owners.

Where were you raised?
I was raised in Marble Hill, Missouri. After high school I moved to St. Louis for 5 years of college to pursue a masters degree in occupational therapy. I then moved to Jackson, Missouri when I got married. This was about 30 minutes from where I grew up. Full circle, we just moved back to my hometown after having our second son. We are now a hop, skip, and a jump away from my parents house. I always remember swooning over the white house on the hill when I was a little girl, and now I get to call it my own!

How many kids/family members do you have, and do they help you with DIY projects?
I have two sons who are the lights of my life. Beckham is 2 and Jack is 5 months old. They are still too young to help with all of our renovations, but they sure do make it interesting! Renovating with two littles is challenging, so sometimes we just have to laugh and remind ourselves these are the good old days! My husband helps with all of our DIYs. Without him and his handy work, I’d be a ship without a sail! He has put blood, sweat, and tears into our new home. I love the example he is setting for our boys and I’m so thankful they get to grow up seeing hard work come to life!

What’s your biggest driving force for inspiration?
My mom and her home has always been a driving force for me. She is the most talented woman I know. Her and my dad seem to know something about everything as far as home decor and DIYs. I love to use her style as inspiration, and then simplify. Our style is modern farmhouse with very simple, but bold details. We like a clean, uncluttered look with focal pieces that make a statement.

What’s your favorite Steel Lighting Co. Light?
Our favorite Steel Lighting Co. Light is the Gardena with a 16” Gooseneck in Matte Black. We have a white exterior and we knew choosing a black matte light would be the perfect touch for contrast. It makes a bold statement and can be clearly seen from the road. The gooseneck feature is unique and adds so much character to our historic hill.

My wife and I only ever had one buyer in mind: the person putting our products in their home. We aimed to sell American-made, high-quality lighting, and we keep our prices fair because we're not interested in helping middlemen make a markup; we're interested in providing for good, honest folk. Just like you.
Love this pop of color being used in the kitchen! What do you think?

I'm still obsessed with @stacey.athome's kitchen design. Matte black and white, warm wood tones, and just the right touch of greenery—honestly, does it get better than this?

There’s something instantly welcoming about this setup—the blue door pulls you in, the Game Room sign adds the perfect contrast, and the compact Hawthorne sconce subtly lights the way. This is the kind of entry that promises cozy nights and a stack of well-loved board games waiting just inside!

If folding laundry has to happen, this is the room to do it in. From the brick herringbone floors to that crisp white shiplap, every detail in this space feels intentional. And overhead? The Malibu keeping things bright without stealing the show.

@whitefishriverrun is serving up mountain-modern at its best—natural wood, matte black finishes, and just the right touch of cozy. We love seeing our fixtures in places that feel designed to be lived in, not just looked at.

The kind of spot that makes you slow down and soak it all in. Warmer days are rolling in, and there’s nothing better than a quiet moment outside—cool shade, a warm breeze, and the glow of a classic barn light as the sun starts to set. Here’s to soft breezes, longer evenings, and the simple joy of winter turning into spring ☀️

Coffee tastes better with a view like this. ☕ The warmth of the wood, the soft glow of those steel pendants, and that spacious island just waiting for good conversation—it all comes together in the kind of kitchen that feels like home. Can’t you just picture slow mornings here, watching the water while breakfast sizzles on the stove?

Farmhouse charm with a modern twist! From the bold contrast of black and white to the warm wood tones, this kitchen is very inviting. The Melrose pendant lights are the perfect finishing touch for a space that’s as stylish as it is functional. Who else is loving this cozy-meets-contemporary vibe?

A barndominium done right. The perfect mix of rustic charm and modern craftsmanship, set against a backdrop of tall pines. Every detail, from the wood beams to the oversized barn doors, makes this space something special. Thank you so much @thatsbyers for sharing your newest build
We love all the reviews we receive, but every so often, one catches our attention and makes us stop and reflect. 💛 Samantha shared how special it was to wait and install this light with their dad, 7 weeks after his open-heart surgery. Together, they centered it perfectly in their dining area—a moment that turned this fixture into something so much more.
It’s stories like this that remind us how important it is to create lasting memories with the people we love. Thank you for letting us be a part of this touching moment. 🛠️❤️ #steellightingco #familymemories #homeimprovement #homelighting #madeinusa #smallbusiness
Los Angeles has always been more than just a city to us—it’s home. Having grown up in LA, every corner holds a memory, and when Rachel and I started Steel Lighting Co., we wanted to celebrate that by naming our fixtures after places in LA that shaped our lives.
Watching the wildfires impact this beautiful place and the people we care about is deeply heartbreaking. Though we are thankful to be safe, many of our friends, family, and neighbors are feeling the tremendous weight of this tragedy.
Now more than ever, it’s time for community, strength, and supporting each other. Our hearts and prayers are with everyone affected. Stay strong, Los Angeles—we’re in this together.
