Choosing Table Lamps And Home Lighting With Confidence

With the wide range of styles, types, and colors of table lamps available

, locating several table lamps which will suit your fancy should be easy. Many people purchase lights based on their personal taste and do not consider how they will coordinate with the dcor of the room. Two important things to remember are that the lights need to coordinate with the surrounding dcor and be suited to its specific lighting purpose. Aside from the types of lights that are purchased, the lamp shade can make a dramatic effect on the room as well.

You may locate the perfect table lamps, but they do not work because the lamp shades are not appropriate for your purpose. Lamp shades that hang low will focus light directly to the area beneath it. Purchasing lamps or lamp shades that sit higher will allow the light to penetrate a wider area of the room.

Lamp shades can substantially change the appearance of table lamps, so that they compliment the room dcor. For example, bottom heavy lamps appear to be lighter when a cone shaped lamp shade is used. Instead of using a very low wattage light bulb, consider using a dark lamp shade to provide ambient lighting in a room. Fluted lamp shades are elegant and work well with a round or square lights. Bell shaped lamp shades create a more contemporary look and work well with a wide range of decors.

Most people have a lot of space in their home, which serves no real purpose. These areas seem to collect an endless amount of miscellaneous items such as keys, wallets, mail, or pocket change. These are perfect spots in your home where you should add table lamps as part of the dcor and find a new place for your keys and wallets.

As you can see, choosing a table lamp is more than purchasing a matching pair of lamps at a mass retailer. With a bit of effort and planning, your lights can illuminate the room and be decorative as well.
