Table lamps feel like such an “old-timey” thing, especially when you look at all the lighting options that are available. However, there is a reason why table lamps have stood the test of time, and that’s because they are an “oldie but a goldie.” Table lamps have also moved with the times in terms of style and by adding LED to the mix. Here is how they can up your decor game while giving you some great functions!
Choose the Right Style
It’s all about looking for lamps that fit in with your already existing style! If you have a modern home, try to look for sleek lines and metallics. If your home style is more bohemian, try colorful patterns or whimsical details. Just find one (or ones) that will suit your personal style and your home!
Illuminate with Intention
Table lamps can definitely change the feel and look of your room. Need a reading nook? Use a lamp with a warm light and soft shade. Want to make a dramatic statement in your living space? Try a bold, oversized lamp. Placing lamps in your home definitely enhances the room’s ambiance, but they can be helpful for telling your guests where to sit and relax.
Layer Your Lighting
And if you really want to design a well-lit room, remember to layer your light! Mix overhead lights, floor lamps, and, you guessed it, table lamps to balance out the light and give a beautiful light display. Place your table lamp on a side table that complements a chair, and not only will it give your guests and you some light for that late-night reading, but the table and lamp will give a beautiful look to your space.
Create Focal Points
Table lamps easily create a bold statement in a room. Is there a blank corner of the room? Grab a table lamp and use a console table to place it at the corner. Add plants or complementing decorative items beside the table and create an eye-catching corner.
Don’t forget the Shades
The lamp shade impacts the lamp lighting. Some colors may create a soft touch to the light, which will make the room look warm and cozy. Select the shades that highlight the color of the room. You can also find a variety of material shades that add more texture to the lamp. The possibilities are unlimited.
Mix and Match
You don’t have to be a slave to the same color and style lamps all over the house — nay, nay! Go crazy! Mix and match by using different styles, colors, and sizes.
