I can never get tired of looking at a lamp which is why I have a certain piece in every room in my home. If people collect cars, clothes, shoes, plates, table cloths and the likes, I collect lampshades. I just love how it looks and frankly, it is a beautiful accessory to any room. It brightens up an area. It illuminates and revitalizes the whole space. If there is something I cannot live without, it is definitely a lamp.
I believe that light eliminates any bad spells or vibrations. No wonder I feel good every time my lamp is lit. My sisters tell me that I over accessorize with lamp stuff but I beg to differ. It is just my style. Some people love Italian furniture. Some want retro styling. Others are into wood and rustic. But for me, it is my lighting effect at home. That is just me.
A lampshade for my bedroom...
Some people believe that the best lampshades for their bedrooms are the Tiffany lamps. For me, I want those with the CONTEMPORARY flair. I own a California King sized bed. Oh yes, it is gigantic. My husband and I just like the space. We love rolling on it, literally bohemian swim cover up. And so, this modern-type bed, comes with modern-like vibe in our room - contemporary lamp shade.
I have an all-white bedroom. Everything is in pure white from bed sheets to walls, window curtains, tables, chairs, rug, phone, desk and of course, my contemporary table lights. I bought it for $49.99 each at Ikea and it is called Torsbo. It is so relaxing since it gives off a soft light; a delight really. I am such a fan of it because I can sleep soundly at night.
A lampshade for my bathroom...
While it is common for a bathroom to have wall or ceiling lights, I have a table lamp in mine. My bathroom is not just a regular bathing area. It is a dual function room for it also is my walk in closet room. I needed the perfect lighting so that I can clearly see my outfits, my make-up and you know, just for the pleasure of it, my favorite home accessory, table lampshade.
The transitional lampshade I placed in my bathroom is a Faux Rattan piece from a local store. I think I bought it for more than $100. The design for my walk in closet slash bathroom is nature overload. So I have wooden floors, drawers, cabinets, dresser, and a garden fountain beside my bathtub. The Faux Rattan lamp fits perfectly - it has a floor and table piece. This room got the compliments from everyone.
A lampshade for my kitchen...
Oh yes! I have a kitchen table lampshade. I have this nook in my kitchen called the AMORE. It is a 2-seater dining set in wood. You can say it is a simple and small round wood table but that is our date table. I have a mini Tiffany lamp. I saw how lovely it was when we ate at a restaurant in Milan. They had dim lights all over the place and a Tiffany lamp on each table. That is how I got my inspiration.
My lampshade for the date table is about 11 inches tall (so tiny) and it has a glass shade. Yellow and chestnut bronze, that is and it is called Z-lite which I purchase together with my bathroom lighting. It has scalloped glass shade and the light exudes an amber tone. Divine.
So there you have it. I have spilled everything that I have and everything that I hold dear. I have opened my home and my heart to you. I just wanted to share that even the most unusual place; you can put almost anything in and on it. A lamp in every room is just celestial.
