Enhance the look of your house with lamp shades
Light fixtures can elevate any décor, and it is the shades surrounding those lights that can transform a simple room into a novelty space. By strategically using lampshades around the house, you can add liveliness to your house’s interior design.
Here are some easy tips to use lampshades with any interior design style.
- Buy shades according to your décor. For instance, if you have wooden furniture in your living room, you can use lampshades made from seagrass, burlap or wicker.
Or if you prefer metal shades, you can buy them in beige, tan and brown to match your wood furniture. Match linen or cotton shades with your upholstery. If you have floral designs on your curtains, you can also get a similar pattern for the shades also. Or, just go with a solid block of color that features on your curtain design, such as a solid red shade to match the red flowers on your white curtains. Choose contrasting colors to add a touch of drama to your home interiors. If you have white furniture in the living room, use a bright color as a shade for your lamps. Choose from fuchsia, purple or black. If your bedroom mainly features décor in a calming shade such as powder blue, you can brighten up with a dark blue or pink shade for the table lamp or the pendant lights. Balance the accent pieces in your house with a mix and match of neutral and dramatic designs. If the base of your lamp has a bold or unusual shape, such as square on square or circle on a circle or a theatrical design (multicolored blocks with golden metallic borders), then keep the shade simple. You can choose neutral or colored shades in cotton or linen but without designs or patterns. Make the shade the star of a room by its sheer size. For big rooms, you can use floor lamps with large-sized drum shades to highlight a particular corner. Or if you prefer understated elegance, match the shades to the furniture while keeping the base design interesting.
You can change the lampshades often to instantly refurbish a room.
