Shimmy Floor Lamp

I have been debating whether to purchase this lovely floor lamp or DIY my existing corner floor lamp that is functional, but I just have lost the love I had for it when I first purchased it {see it here}. Decisions decisions…. I’m leaning more towards getting this lamp for its boutique hotel style feel.

When you are finishing up a room design, it’s very important to recognize how essential lighting fixtures are. Not only are lamps essential to a well-lit room, but they also make a big impact
on a room’s overall look and feel. Whenever you have an itch to change something, one of the ways you can amplify your room’s style is by choosing the right light fixtures for your home.

TIPS: things to keep in mind when shopping for floor or table lamps.

1- THE LAMP SHADE: Don’t forget as you shop for lamps, make sure to pay close attention to the shade, as it will determine a light’s effectiveness. For instance, the wider the shade and the closer the bulb is to it, the greater the spread of light will be.

2- THE LAMP’S HEIGHT: If it’s too short or too tall the bulb will create glare that can be annoying and renders it useless.
