Let There Be Light

I have a soft spot for lamps, any kind, large, small, glass, painted, any kind will do thank you, especially now with the dark evenings are drawing in. Lighting, like colour, can also be used to make a room seem larger or smaller, depending on the positioning and types of lights chosen.

I love these two large lamps, positioned on two small tables, adding balance to this area, lamps can be used to draw attention to decorative details and it can help to create mood and atmosphere, picture by Tom Scheerer, NY.

A simple lamp, can add light to any area as well a being a decorative feature.

Floor lamps are great for small areas, remember shades can transform an ordinary lamp bases into an up to the minute stylish design. Picture from Kathryn M Ireland’s house, check out her site, Kathryn’s fabrics are to die for.

The key to successful lighting in the home is versatility and adaptability.
