Lighting can either add to or detract from the overall look and feel of a room.

One of the easier things to control in your home is the amount of light in a space or room. Fixtures and bulbs can more often than not be changed smoothly. And you won’t have to spend a small fortune to accomplish your goals! If you need help, please call or visit The Shade Tree & Accessories; a member of our knowledgeable staff would be more than happy to help you.

Linear ceiling fixtures are becoming very popular rather than traditional chandeliers and the like, which hang down some. If you choose to go this route, it’s best to go with exposed light bulbs to make the most of the look.

When it comes to desk and table lamps, marble bases are making a comeback. But that doesn’t mean it has to be a plain white marble base! There are plenty of colorful marble options available at The Shade Tree & Accessories.

And don’t forget to make sure you’re saving money on your energy bills, as well as reducing your carbon footprint, with LED lighting. There are many available fixtures that are now specifically geared toward LED light bulbs.

Lampshades made of natural fibers such as wicker are also becoming trendy. They add warmth and comfort to a space as well as a sense of freedom.

Don’t be afraid to go with a larger shade, as you won’t be the only one! Since ceilings are being emphasized in interior design more, the ceiling light fixtures are in turn becoming very important. Many people are also going with shaped light fixtures to make them stand out even more.

Finally, consider indirect lighting in a room also, as it can help create a relaxing ambience. A light under a counter or behind a mirror can really add the perfect accent to a space.
