One fun and easy way to quickly and efficiently spice up the decor of your house or flat is with creative ceiling lighting. Nothing sets like mood like the right luminosity. Still, many shoppers are confused by the vast array of options out there, and there is an enormous price differential, let alone the fact that styles seem to change rapidly. Want a quick tip on how to gussy up dimly or poorly lit spaces? Try installing a fine chandelier somewhere inside.

You might initially think chandeliers are intended for French castles or expensive penthouse apartments, but you really must think again! Nowadays even high street retailers sell reasonably priced chandeliers for any room and any occasion. To begin with, a chandelier placed in the most visible entryway of your home would make a delightful addition to the decor. Gusts love feeling âEUR~fancyâEUR(TM) immediately upon entering the home, and setting the tone right away is very important. Kitchens and dining areas also serve as great places for chandeliers, as theyâEUR(TM)re places where guests like to congregate and even a simple dose of flair can add to the ambience.

Perhaps the trendiest use of ceiling lighting now days, however, is to hang chandeliers in spaces that arenâEUR(TM)t necessarily formal. Boho chic London shops do it, so why canâEUR(TM)t you? Instead of going with boring lamps or pricy candles in your bathroom or study, try installing a chandelier. This might sound odd at first, and installing a 17th-century French chandelier over a bathtub would not go over well aesthetically. But chandeliers have come a long way since those early days. Manufacturers produce fixtures with as few as four or five bulbs to keep things simple yet elegant. Using a simple yet refined piece in your bathroom would create a spa-like feel, while adding one to a casual study would add a captivating bohemian vibe that would make it difficult to leave the room!

When shopping for a chandelier, keep in mind that options run the gamut from cheap plastic to antique metals to modern steel. Pieces are often garnished with sparkling ornaments that turn brilliant in the light. Crystal is the most traditional choice for such garnishes, but glass and other materials would suffice for the budget shopper. Overall, when shopping try to find a piece that would match the decor youâEUR(TM)ve already established in your room. Finding the right piece will work wonders for your ceiling lighting.
