Strike a Light...




Sharing some tips and tricks from www.freshome.com  that should convert your home into an oasis of relaxation for both you and your guests.
We often neglect the magical effects lighting can have on a room.
With just a few fixtures in the right place, a room can easily appear bigger, taller, longer or… cosier.
So what is it about lighting that can make a place more inviting than the next?

It all breaks down to the simple act of repetition.

In order to reduce the scale of a room, consider placing several table lamps around, for an intimate atmosphere.
You should only use a ceiling light for larger gatherings or formal events.
Floor lamps are ideal for an awkward corner, shining on a sofa in the living room or library or brightening an entry hall.
When entertaining, small things like adding candles, dim lighting from various sources, a glowing fireplace mean your place is ready for a perfect convivial evening.
